Monitored for WQAD3 via Midnight Mausoleum:
This movie perfectly encapsulates the phrase “Boo! Haunted House”. Also, Edgar Allen Poe is there for some reason.

A really entertaining, atmospheric Italian gothic horror that happens to take place on Halloween! I just wish I hadn’t watched a crappy public domain copy of it.
