    Editorial Reviews

    George Baxt scripted this extraordinarily good chiller from a story by Milton Subotsky, who also co-produced. A college student (Venetia Stevenson) with an interest in witchcraft goes to the Massachusetts town of Whitewood. It's a foggy, spooky town which gets even scarier when Stevenson discovers that the owner of the Raven's Inn, Mrs. Newlis (Patricia Jessel) is in fact a 268-year old witch. Jessel sold her soul to the Devil to regain her life after being burned at the stake. The whole town is her coven, including Stevenson's kindly history professor (Christopher Lee). Stevenson's boyfriend and brother arrive to look for her and discover human sacrifices and all sorts of evil goings-on. One of the few horror films of the period which still has the power to frighten, Horror Hotel is required viewing for genre fans. Robert Firsching, All Movie Guide

    May 31, 2005: This is a great movie, has some really scary moments. The music was incredibly weird as a choice for this frightening film. I don't get it. There is a part in the film that shows a human sacrifice and that is the scariest part of the movie! I have the DVD version and the VHS. Enjoy!!

    May 31, 2004: I first seen this movie back in 1969. I was about 12 years old. It scared the heck out of me. 30 years have past, and I found this movie in VHS form. Guess what, it still scares the heck out of me. I watched it at about 10am in the morning. Still scared the heck out of me. This movie is creppy to say the least. Watch it with a friend. 'Freddy Kruger, The Shinning, Cujo,Have nothing on this movie. The fog, The music,The actors,all should have gotten awards. I just got the DVD verison, I can't wait to see it. Be arafid, Be very Afraid
