I don't think I would like to live in either the main house, or the "Old House". I have seen the actual house used for the outside shots of the main mansion, in Newport, and it was a real thrill for me, even though all I could do was take pictures of it from the street in front.<br /><br />I think that both Hill House and Rose Red were inspired by the Winchester Mystery House, which several people have mentioned. I have toured it, and it is definitely worth it! If anyone gets the chance, reserved most of the day for it. There are several tours, and I spent almost four hours, I think.<br /><br />DulcineaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144784325334181261.post-40327063993579873612009-10-12T22:56:44.496-05:002009-10-12T22:56:44.496-05:00Fantastic post, Ryan!Fantastic post, Ryan!Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774383554326288663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144784325334181261.post-64359514024393984732009-10-12T14:50:34.646-05:002009-10-12T14:50:34.646-05:00Arielle, I was thinking it would be neat to visit ...Arielle, I was thinking it would be neat to visit some of these as well.

I do have to agree not to live in a house that is haunted by children and was once an orphanage, *shiver*.<br /><br />I thought maybe just maybe you would have Monster House on here too. I do agree with these ones most definitely but didn't know if you where going to throw a cartoon house in here or not.<br /><br />Great list.Melissa (My World...in words and pages)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09621830513280969319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144784325334181261.post-82573700020170635322009-10-11T16:12:13.367-05:002009-10-11T16:12:13.367-05:00Awesome post!

Eek. And the book was scarier than the film - Those animal bushes outside the hotel that would move when you weren't looking. Scary stuff.<br /><br />I think I'd also have to make a mental note to avoid living within a twelve-street radius of Regan MacNeil. Don't want to go to any of her mother's parties, don't want to be walking past those concrete steps that everyone seems to fall down, and don't want to be anywhere near her house!Cerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02819784931932219371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144784325334181261.post-52777193757274795912009-10-11T10:28:12.601-05:002009-10-11T10:28:12.601-05:00Oooh, I'm already creeped out, just looking at...Oooh, I'm already creeped out, just looking at the pix!<br /><br />Actually, I don't even like huge houses, with lots of hallways and annexes...just because of the potential spook factor.Laurel-Rain Snowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00101090217639410913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144784325334181261.post-1733955343701815502009-10-11T08:09:06.773-05:002009-10-11T08:09:06.773-05:00I've seen just about all of these movies.
