IMDB IMDB

Across from the People Under The Stairs house and next door to the Twice Dead / Evil Toons house is the William J Washburn house, which also has quite the B-movie resume.

Sorority House Massacre II

The house is featured in Sorority House Massacre II (1990). Above you'll see four pictures from the movie. The first two pictures are of the house. The third picture shows a brief glimpse of the Twice Dead / Evil Toons house next door. The fourth picture looks across the street, showing the People Under The Stairs house on the left and the house used as Orville Ketchum's house on the right. Interesting to note: the house used as Orville Ketchum's house in the movie originally belonged to Oscar-winning Gone With The Wind actress Hattie McDaniel.

The Immortalizer

The house is the primary setting for The Immortalizer (1989). The movie also utilized the neighboring homes, as seen in the previous two blog entries.

Camp Fear

The house appears in the opening scenes of Camp Fear (1991), an unofficial sequel to Cheerleader Camp starring Betsy Russell. The house also served as the setting for both Spirits (1990) and Teenage Exorcist (1991), both of which starred Brinke Stevens.
