Mason Community Players present The Haunting of Hill House

Mason Community Players present The Haunting of Hill House, a story about Hill House, a haunted mansion surrounded by hills. Dr. John Montague, a paranormal investigator, rents Hill House for the summer and invites guests who have supernatural experiences. Eleanor Vance and Theodora are the only two who accept. He hopes that they will help him prove that the supernatural exists. Luke Sanderson, the young heir to the estate, plays a role in the experiments. Mrs. Montague, Mrs. Dudley, and Arthur also partake in the spooky story.

Director Darren Lee and producer Tess Catlin will host The Haunting of Hill House at the Mason Community Playhouse on Halloween and several days in November. MCP is welcoming back Bob Brunner and introducing six new members to the cast. Their combined talents assure you a “hauntingly spooky” experience. The performances are scheduled for October 31 and November 1, 6, 7, and 8 at 8:00 p.m., and November 2 at 2:00 p.m.

The Haunting of Hill House is a horror novel written by American author Shirley Jackson in 1959. It was adapted to film in 1963 and 1999, but was titled The Haunting. The novel was first adapted for the stage in 1964 by F. Andrew Leslie.
