The DVD says:

It sits there, shrouded in mist and mystery, a nesting place for living evil and terror from the dead. It's Hell House. Roddy McDowall heads the cast of this exciting chiller about four psychic investigators and the dark, brooding mansion they themselves call "the Mt. Everest of haunted houses." It's already destroyed one team of researchers. Now this brave quartet ventures in for another try at unravelling its secret. But before they succeed, they must suffer through madness, murder and everything else the spirits that dwell here have in store for them. Yet learning the truth just might drive them all insane. An ingeniously-devised ghost story, THE LEGEND OF HELL HOUSE will thrill and delight veteran horror fans from the first creaking door to the very last slithering shadow.

My Opinion:

A pretty poor take off of the original 'The Haunting' which is now looking very dated. It's not a very scary movie or even very bloody, but is well filmed and acted. The story for me is really the disappointment and leaves you feeling cheated at the end. The DVD is very disappointing as is usual with Fox's back catalogue with only the measly trailer as an extra.
