Horror writer Roger Cobb moves into his aunt's house after she commits suicide. A logical move most of us would make. He begins work on his next novel to take his mind off his separation and the disappearance of his son, Jimmy. But instead he starts to lose his mind after a series of nightmares and strange occurrences in the house. He is soon attacked by monsters but manages to reunite with his lost son on the other side of the medicine cabinet. But the reunion is overshadowed when Roger is attacked by his former Vietnam wartime buddy Big Ben, whom Roger is able to defeat. He and Jimmy get the hell out of that house to start a new life.
House was helmed by Steve Miner, who had directed Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981) and Friday the 13th Part III (1982) and would later make Halloween H20: Twenty Years Later (1998) and was produced by Sean Cunningham, who directed the original Friday the 13th (1980). The film didn't produce as many scares as the aforementioned, but it managed a decent performance at the box office, which led to further development of other dwellings.
