Clear Creek Community Theatre to Stage THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE This Fall

Clear Creek Community Theatre (CCCT) brings F. Andrew Leslie's adaption of Shirley Jackson's novel, THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE, to its stage October 23 - November 8.

Director Robert Meek loves the horror genre and notes for the past few years the genre has been seriously under-presented on stage. Meek added "When the original movie adaptation came out, it terrified audiences all over, and the root story has gone on to inspire countless horror films and books. So why not take it back to where it all began?"

Cut off from the outside world by its remote location and shunned by all who know its forbidding and sinister reputation, Hill House has remained empty and silent except for the daily visits of its grumbling caretaker, Mrs. Dudley. Its isolation is broken by the arrival of Dr. Montague, an investigator whose mission is to delve into the morbid history of the house and to come to grips with the occult forces that have made it uninhabitable for many years. He is joined by three others, and at first, their stay seems destined to be merely a spooky encounter with inexplicable phenomena. As they struggle to disguise their mounting fears, they are joined by Dr. Montague's wife and a friend, who have come to Hill House for purposes of their own. Their research into the supernatural brings on a crisis in which the evil forces of Hill House are goaded to a new and fatal fury.

THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE runs October 23 - November 8 with performances at 8pm on Fridays and Saturdays and 2:30pm on Sundays. Tickets are $13-15. Group rates are available. Tickets may be purchased online at www.clearcreekcommunitytheatre.com or by calling the box office at 281-335-5228.

Clear Creek Community Theatre is located at 18091 Upper Bay Road in Nassau Bay, Texas.
