Collection of four US horror films. In 'House' (1986), Vietnam veteran Roger Cobb (William Katt) decides to move into his aunt's old Victorian mansion in an attempt to find his son, who went missing there sometime before. The creepy building once bore witness to his aunt's suicide, and now, as Roger attempts to unravel its mysteries, he becomes tormented by the sinister presence which lurks within. 'House II - The Second Story' (1987) follows young couple Jesse (Arye Gross) and Kate (Lar Park Lincoln) as they move into the old house where Jesse's parents had been murdered 20 years earlier. While searching through his family's old belongings in the basement, Jesse finds a coffin containing the body of his great-great-grandfather, who has been kept alive by the magical properties of an ancient Aztec crystal skull. When the skull is then stolen, Jesse and his friends must battle with a number of evil forces to try and get it back. In 'House III - The Horror Show' (1989), Detective Lucas McCarthy (Lance Henriksen) sends notorious criminal Max Jenke (Brion James) to the electric chair. However, despite his execution, Jenke still manages to torment Detective McCarthy and his family from beyond the grave. Finally, in 'House IV - The Repossession' (1992), following the death of Roger Cobb in a car accident, his wife and daughter decide to keep his family's haunted old mansion. However, not long after moving in, the pair begin to experience a number of mysterious and frightening events as the evil presence that troubled Roger years ago returns once more.
