Synopsis

Frederick Loren invites five strangers to a party and offers each $10,000 if they can spend the night in a reportedly haunted house. Each guest arrives in a hearse, armed with a gun for protection, and will either leave in it much richer—or dead.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 15

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
