Hell House LLC to be shown in theaters for the first time
By Carla Davis
Terror films has announced something that will make my fellow fans of the Hell House LLC series very happy. For the very first time, and for one night only, the original Hell House LLC will be shown in theaters.
This special event is no doubt intended to amp up interest in the franchise prior to the upcoming fall release of Hell House LLC III: Lake of Fire. The third installment will be a Shudder exclusive, as was Hell House LLC II. The first two movies can currently be seen on Shudder.
Cities currently slated to screen the film include: Chicago, Hazleton and Scranton, PA, Miami, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Orlando (my home town, hurray!), San Francisco, Seattle and St. Louis. Since the original announcement was made, the following locations have been added: Salt Lake City, Oklahoma City, Atlanta and New York City. More cities may be added, depending on interest.
In order for these locations to host a screening, each must meet its own individual ticket sales goal by the cutoff date. Failure to meet the threshold will result in the screening being pulled. Tickets can be purchased online.

Terror Films stated that they wanted to give all of the Hell House LLC fans a “special treat”, since they are the reason the franchise became so popular. President Joe Dain added that there was no better way to say thanks “than giving fans an opportunity to experience the original film in a theatrical setting with killer 5.1 surround sound.”
Terror Films is also recruiting Volunteer Ambassadors for each screening. These volunteers are asked to help drive awareness and ticket sales via social media and word of mouth, and also to help check guests in on the night of the screening. Two volunteers (age 18 or older) will be chosen for each city, and they will receive a limited edition poster featuring all three of the Hell House LLC movie posters. Fans who are interested should send an email to: hellhousellcambassadors@gmail.com
The one-night screenings will be held on Wednesday, Sept. 4 at 7:00 p.m. The poster for Hell House LLC III: Lake of Fire is set to release on July 12.
