Death holds the mortgage, and if you move in…they’ll be Hell to pay. One Night, the kind and catholic Baker family is brutally murdered… Twenty years later, a Radio-Ham recieves a strange message on his CB. Intrigued, he locates the original signal and finds another amateur-radio left alone in the attic of the now abandonned Baker house.

Filmed at the same house location as Lucio Fulci’s, “House by the Cemetary” (Quella villa accanto al cimitero (1981)). The House is actually Called the Ellis House.

Follow this path straight to the Ellis House. I have also posted on my channel a slidehow of …
