House On Haunted Hill (1959)

https://moviesalamark.com/2021/04/12/house-on-haunted-hill-1959/

HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL, starring Vincent Price, directed by William
Castle in 1959, made for just $200,000, managed to lure enough teens and
kids into theaters to return $4,300,000, 61st place that year.
Subsequent showings on the boob tube during the 60s snared new
victims...

In some theaters equipped for it, director Castle used a promo gimmick
he called “Emergo”, where pulleys dragged plastic skeletons to rattle
over the audience at a key point...

Vincent Price:

“I am Frederick Loren, and I have rented The House on Haunted Hill
tonight so that my wife can give a party. She’s so amusing...

There’ll be food and drink and ghosts, and perhaps even a few murders...

You’re all invited. If any of you will spend the next twelve hours in
this house, I will give you each ten thousand dollars, or your next of
kin in case you don’t survive...

Ah, but here come our other guests...

So,What’s the use of saying, “Good night”?

Nora, I think you’re a little upset. Would you care for a
sedative...???"
