just any old house this place is haunted
by its previous owners who were killed
in a freak accident it’s full of unique
touches but its most distinguishing
feature is the Attic

supernatural force stalks the new owners
of this otherwise ordinary suburban home

spirits doors slam footsteps pound and
furniture is constantly moved around not
even the bed is safe number 8 the manor

off the coast of France this giant
remote country house is shrouded in fog
and mystery graves occupy its grounds

this dingy gated home and wander its
grounds as ghosts a pale faced boy his

eternal home of the family that was
murdered there and they do not want to
share it to scare them off these ghosts
tear up the walls rip doors from their
hinges shake cabinets and fiercely slam
doors closed pretty much everything you
don’t want in a roommate number five the
cabin the Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2 a
tennessee mountain is the backdrop for
this rickety cabin where an
archaeologists unholy fine is kept that
dark and dirty cabin and its surrounding
forests are then haunted by demons and
spooks due to the presence of the
Necronomicon or Book of the Dead no
other haunted house on this list
features such unsettling things as a
zombie corpse locked in the basement or
a deer head that laughs at you number
four Hill House
the haunting there’s just something off
about this old mansion probably because
of its disturbing history the fright
factor is emphasized by doors that
always close on their own and mysterious
forces that draw in the occupants the
supernatural is just inches away as it
teems within the walls ghosts bang
giggle and cry behind every door just
far enough away to be out of reach
number three the house on Haunted Hill
House on Haunted Hill you can’t get any
creepier than an old Asylum this ancient
loony bin is filled with spider webs
cells test chambers and mentally
unstable spooks because if there’s
anything worse than a ghost
it’s a crazy ghost at midnight the
windows and doors slam shut
to prevent victims from escaping because
this house never lets anyone make it to
the morning with their life
