Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Right up the alley of fantasy readers and anyone who likes secrets inside secrets. Its magic has rules, and the story plays by them. Same wavelength as House on Haunted Hill or Death Becomes Her. Built to entertain rather than impress the critics, and audiences love it for that.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Builds dread steadily, at 1 hr 22 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
  • Rated PG: scary moments. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
  • Critics were cooler on it than audiences.
  • It picked up 1 Razzie, the "worst of the year" awards.
  • Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.

Radio personalities Larry Abbot and Vickie Pearle are stars of a mystery show. Since they announced their engagement, Larry has been plagued by speech problems and, seeking out an unconventional cure, he returns to his boyhood home, a mansion in the countryside, bringing Vickie along. Larry reunites with numerous family members, but discovers that there are sinister things afoot within the walls of the creepy estate.
