Hammer House of Horror
OverviewSynopsis
"Hammer House of Horror is synonymous with terror, suspense and the supernatural. These alternative bedtime stories sparked millions of sleepless nights when originally screened and remain as scary as ever! The stories cover a wide range. Thrills and chills. Mystery and intrigue. Suspense and the supernatural. Everything from sheer spine-tingling horror to sinister drama, the occult and the eerie.
Each generation creates tales of horror... Stories that seep through to the very heart of our collective fears... The legendary Hammer Studios is recognized as the high water mark of the gothic macabre, spinning some of the most suspenseful and chilling horror films of all time, including Curse of Frankenstein, Dracula - Prince of Darkness, and Curse of the Werewolf. Hammer gave the world icons of horror with tales that seduced their way into our darkest spaces and our deepest nightmares.
In 1980, Hammer took over the old Hampden Manor House in the heartland of England and produced a series of 13 short horror stories for television. With a host of Hammer regulars including Peter Cushing (Star Wars) and Denholm Elliot (Raiders of the Lost Ark), along with emerging newcomers such as Pierce Brosnan (Goldeneye), each episode provides a completely new and individual tale of terror and suspense."
The classic Hammer House of Horror ran for one series of 13 episodes and was then cancelled. A second series was later produced called Hammer House of Mystery and Suspense (1984), but this was an inferior toned down version made for the American market.
