RYO Review: Hell House by Richard Matheson
When Emeric Belasco built his huge mansion in 1919 in a remote unhealthy valley, he systematically debauched friends over several years to the utmost reaches of depravity. He blocked the windows and locked the doors, till the horrible frenzy of degradation and every sort of vileness ended with 27 people dead, though Belasco’s body was never found. Now alcohol abuse, drugs, rape, incest, sexual abuse of every variety, suicide, cannibalism, starvation and murder are imprinted on the house. Various psychic investigations over the years have always ended in death, suicide or madness.
Now a dying owner of the house wants an investigation to probe the possibility of life after death, and offers a team $100,000 each to brave the dangerous house to eradicate the evil.
