Stephen Cognetti's Hell House franchise hits theaters for the first time this summer, with Terror Films Releasing and Iconic Events today releasing another creepy new teaser for the fifth and final entry in the series, Hell House LLC: Lineage.
Returning forHell House LLC: Lineage are characters from other installments in the franchise, including the Carmichael siblings from Hell House LLC Origins: The Carmichael Manor, as well as Elizabeth Vermilyea as Vanessa Shephard, the resurrected documentarian from Hell House LLC: Lake of Fire. The film’s logline is as follows:
Haunted by visions and recurring nightmares years after a near-death experience, Vanessa Shepard finds herself living in the town of Abaddon, unable to break free from its unexplainable hold on her. When people around her suddenly and inexplicably begin to die, she soon uncovers her terrifying connection to the Abaddon Hotel, the Carmichael Manor and the mysterious murders that have been occurring for decades, long before Hell House LLC.
Unlike previous entries in the Hell House series, Lineage strays from the found-footage format for a more traditional narrative medium (in the vein of 825 Forest Road, Cognetti’s first film outside of the Hell House series currently streaming on Shudder) with the director explaining the choice to do so as follows:
This is by far the biggest Hell House of the series, so experiencing it in a theater is definitely the best way to consume the final chapter, […] For the story, scope and scares I wanted to write in Lineage, found footage was going to be too restrictive to make the film that I wanted to make. I set out to make a Hell House movie like you’ve never seen and I promise you won’t be disappointed in the change of format.”
