Upon arriving at the house, Jenni begins to feel uneasy about Marion’s fate: supposedly, she drowned after hitting her head on the edge of a decorative pond in the gardens. Jenni then learns that Mickey (Alex Nicol), the groundskeeper, believes that Marion’s ghost roams the estate – and soon Jenni herself has experienced things she can’t explain, terrified that she is in the grip of the supernatural.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClearly influenced by gothic melodramas such as Rebecca and Gaslight and presaging the disquieting menace of such haunted house classics as House on Haunted Hill, The Innocents and The Haunting, The Screaming Skull is filled with hair-raising set-pieces and deserves its place in the pantheon of independent American horror cinema. Eureka Classics is proud to present the film on Blu-ray for the first time in the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPECIAL FEATURES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLimited edition O-card slipcase and interior packaging featuring new artwork by John Dunn [2000 copies]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLimited edition collector’s booklet featuring new writing on the production and marketing of The Screaming Skull by film historian Jon Towlson, author of Subversive Horror Cinema [2000 copies]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1080p HD presentation on Blu-ray\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginal English mono audio\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptional English subtitles (SDH)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew introduction to The Screaming Skull by horror novelist Stephen Laws\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShrouded in Mystery – new video essay on The Screaming Skull and the gothic horror tradition by film and literature scholar Mary Going\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrailers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eureka","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41134661304369,"sku":null,"price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/9878\/2001\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_ed09113c-be6e-4923-99d1-8766e822d155.jpg?v=1784875269","url":"https:\/\/openframemedia.co\/products\/the-screaming-skull-limited-edition-eureka-blu-ray-region-b-uk-import","provider":"Open Frame Media","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
