The Haunting
Dir. Robert Wise, 1963, USA/UK, 1 hour & 52 minutes Cast: Julie Harris, Claire Bloom, Richard Johnson
The Haunting is a masterclass in psychological horror that leaves more to the imagination—and is all the more terrifying for it. When a small group is invited to investigate the eerie Hill House, strange occurrences and an oppressive atmosphere begin to unravel their minds. Anchored by Julie Harris’s haunting performance as the fragile Eleanor, this black-and-white classic uses sound, shadow and suggestion to deliver chills without a single drop of blood being spilled. Experience one of horror’s most elegant and enduring nightmares.
