As he was known for, Castle’s gimmick for House on Haunted Hill was to have a pulley system that would release a skeleton to fly over and scare the hell out of audiences at key moments during the film of some theaters. It was directed and produced by legendary B-movie director William Castle ( 13 Ghosts 1960, Strait-Jacket 1964) and co-produced and written by Robb White ( The Tingler 1959, 13 Ghosts 1960), and shot in the Los Angeles area at the renowned Ennis-Brown house for exteriors, Los Feliz, and sound stages for Allied Artists Studios. The scream heard around the world in every theater came before the title even announced 1959’s B&W American Horror film, House on Haunted Hill.
