House on Haunted Hill

The story follows an eccentric millionaire and his wife who have invited a group of five strangers to a “haunted house” party with the promise of $10,000. For a comedy, there seemed to be too many straight-man characters, which allowed Tara Sissom and Jason Kuykendall to completely steal the show with their hilarious character choices.
