One by one they will die! Only the killer knows why and how and who is next!
In a strict girls’ boarding school, students begin disappearing under mysterious and gruesome circumstances. As tension escalates, the headmistress struggles to maintain control while uncovering dark secrets hidden within the school’s walls. This psychological horror thriller blends suspense and gothic elements in a chilling exploration of repression and violence.

Taking its cue from the Gothic sub-genre in Italy, The House That Screamed is a well-done movie with enough intimated perversity to make exploitation film lovers happy. … It doesn’t move fast but it’s always engaging, thanks to a fine cast, and if you stick around long enough you’ll find it time well spent. The ending is pure exploitation gold!
Danny Shipka, Perverse Titillation: The Exploitation Cinema of Italy, Spain and France, 1960-1980 (McFarland, 2011)
