The House of Fear background

The House of Fear

A detective assumes a new identity to investigate a producer's murder at a theater, where rumors of a malevolent ghost swirl, and he must unravel a complex web of deceit to uncover the truth.

A murder takes place during a Broadway play, leading to the theater's closure. Rumors spread that the ghost of the murdered actor haunts the theater. A skeptical NYC detective, posing as a producer, reopens the play to catch the killer in the act. However, another actor is murdered, and a third takes the stage. The detective's attention falls on a real estate-obsessed stagehand who may be hiding a sinister secret.
