The House of Mystery (1934)

  • Summary

  • In "The House of Mystery," an archeologist is cursed after stealing treasure from a temple. Twenty years after he goes home, he invites the investors he shrifted over to his old, dark house for shenanigans and murder. This movie, like many in the genre, is offense, because it trivializes Hinduism in several different ways. Plus, it trivializes disability and involves animal abuse. Other than that, it hits all the notes for your basic haunted house movie, including a seance which makes no sense at all. Amber and Mike sum up the plot of this movie and Mike shares the original character he created based on this movie that you can download for use in tabletop role playing games.


    Editor's Note: The movie Saltburn is mentioned in a general way at 1:05:00. You may want to skip 30 seconds if you don't want any whiff of the plot of that movie.
