House on Haunted Hill 1959

Watson Pritchard: (Elisha Cook Jr.)

“Only the ghosts in this house are glad we’re here”.

“The ghosts are moving tonight, restless… hungry. May I introduce myself? I’m Watson Pritchard. In just a moment I’ll show you the only really haunted house in the world. Since it was built a century ago, seven people including my brother have been murdered in it, since then, I’ve owned the house. I only spent one night then and when they found me in the morning, I… I was almost dead.”

“These guns are no good against the dead. Only the living.”
