The House of Seven Corpses
A director chooses the old Beal mansion as the location for his new horror film, in spite of warnings about the house's grisly history. When the shooting begins, he directs the leading lady to read from the Tibetan Book of the Dead, which inadvertently releases the spirits of the Beal family who had been trapped in the mansion since their untimely deaths years before. As the spirits re-stage their deaths, crew members start turning up dead and the survivors turn from filmmaking to solving the secrets of the mansion and getting out alive.
