Hell House LLC | comment |
Hell House LLC is a 2015 indie Found Footage Mockumentary Horror film written and directed by Stephen Cognetti.On October 8th, 2009, an unexplained malfunction at the haunted house attraction Hell House in upstate New York took the lives of fifteen people, including most of the staff. Authorities have discouraged any further investigation about what happened ever since. In 2014, a documentary crew goes back to Abaddon, New York looking for answers. What they find raises even more questions about what happened on Hell House's tragic opening night.The film was followed by two sequels, Hell House LLC II: The Abaddon Hotel, which was released in 2018, and Hell House LLC 3, released in 2019. A fourth film, Hell House LLC Origins: The Carmichael Manor, which is set after the original trilogy but covers much of the backstory leading up to it, was released in 2023. | |

Urban Legends: There's a lot of stories about the Abaddon Hotel, its former owner Andrew Tully's suicide and other rumors about the place revealed by interviews with a local author and a photographer who got some pictures from inside of the hotel. One of the interview subjects argues it's very likely the Hell House crew knew nothing about any of them and Alex actively dismisses the story of Tully's suicide as a rumor. | |

Chekhov's Gun: When the crew's setting up the dummies in the basement, the crew discusses whether they should leave the blue-mouthed clown mask on a dummy which can't turn its head, or put it on a different, better dummy. They ultimately leave it where it is. So when the blue-mouthed clown turns its head to look at Paul when he turns away for a second, the audience knows something has gone very wrong. | |

Hell House LLC / int_24321e44 | comment |
Only Sane Man: Paul comes across as this as he reacts very appropriately to being on the receiving end of several unexplained encounters in the hotel. Tony comes around too and nearly walks off the project because of what happens in the basement before opening night, point-blank telling Alex Hell House isn't safe to open to the public. Jonathan, the documentary cameraman, shows signs of this as well as he expresses growing fear once they break into the Abaddon Hotel, convinces Diane not to go into the basement and tries to stop her from going into Room 2C. | |

Face-Revealing Turn | |
Hell House LLC / int_42d7e070 | comment |
Diane has shades of this. Her and her crew have footage of supernatural murders happening in the Abaddon Hotel, and she finds blood trails when she and her cameraman enter to check things out. Despite having a plethora of evidence that exploring the hotel won't end well, she drags her cameraman through the house to find supernatural phenomena. When she discovers Sarah facing away from her in room 2C despite the impossibility of her having gotten there, her reaction is to try to talk to her, which goes about as well as you'd expect. | |

Downer Ending: The film starts off with fifteen people, including most of the Hell House actors and crew, dying in an unknown malfunction five years before and goes downhill from there. The documentary interviewer and cameraman break into the Abaddon Hotel, find Sara waiting for them in Room 2C and suffer an unknown but presumably horrible fate. | |

Government Conspiracy | |
Hell House LLC / int_5a4aa505 | comment |
Government Conspiracy: The official explanation for what happened is it was some sort of tragic equipment malfunction. The emergency service personnel who were there are under strict gag orders, the only police officer who has spoken about it did so anonymously and the first official explanation is discredited when a 911 tape from inside Hell House gets leaked to the Internet. This is also subverted as they aren't trying that hard to keep people out of the hotel as a journalist, the documentary crew and later thrill-seekers seem to have no trouble getting in. | |

We Are Experiencing Technical Difficulties: The official explanation for what happened. The Hell House patrons initially think is going on when they see staff members running down the halls and away from the basement. The Hell House crew experiences consistent problems with their walky talkies and on opening night they are completely useless. The only part of the hotel the security cameras do not work is in the basement, forcing the crew to rely on having people with working walky talkies to know what's going on. | |

Creepy Basement: Intended to be the exit and final room of Hell House and is where the mysterious accident happened on opening night. Comes complete with occult symbols already chalked into the walls and ancient Bibles all over the place. It's spooky enough that the reporter who breaks into Hell House gets his pictures by sticking the camera around the corner and taking the shot without looking. It's also where the first mannequins that move are first set up and where the rest of the crew finds Paul after he gets attacked in his room and disappears. It's also the only room where the security cameras do not work. | |

Why, I wasn't too alive to begin with... Paul makes it no secret that he is kind of a pervert and longs for female company at the Abaddon Hotel at night.

Too Dumb to Live | |
Hell House LLC / int_b58b4e3c | comment |
Too Dumb to Live: Alex insisting that Hell House go ahead. At first the strange happenings can be dismissed as pranks but persisting on opening Hell House to the public after the dining room scene is when he really crosses the line. Paul continuing to stay at the hotel after witnessing several unexplained and freaky events and openly stating he felt this place wasn't safe. Averted with Mac and Tony who decide to stay based on something that Alex told Mac but we never find out what that was. In a reddit thread discussing the film, the director explains that Alex had brought the company to the brink of financial ruin, and that if the haunt wasn’t successful, it would be closed for good. It eventually ended up on the cutting room floor, leaving it ambiguous, and in the event of a sequel, may not remain canonical. Confirmed in the trailer for the sequel where Mac confronts Alex on completely bankrupting the company prior to the events of Hell House. Alex responds by saying they can use the abandoned Abaddon Hotel for a new haunt that will make all the money back. Diane has shades of this. Her and her crew have footage of supernatural murders happening in the Abaddon Hotel, and she finds blood trails when she and her cameraman enter to check things out. Despite having a plethora of evidence that exploring the hotel won't end well, she drags her cameraman through the house to find supernatural phenomena. When she discovers Sarah facing away from her in room 2C despite the impossibility of her having gotten there, her reaction is to try to talk to her, which goes about as well as you'd expect. | |

Inn of No Return | |
Hell House LLC / int_c0015c4c | comment |
Inn of No Return: The Abaddon Hotel is rumored to be one. Before the events shown in the film local legend has it some people, including a mother and daughter, checked in and never checked out. Business dried up and the owner hanged himself in the hotel dining room. Sara later claims to be staying in a room that turns out to be in the Abaddon, leading to the documentary crew's demise. | |

Nothing Is Scarier | |
Hell House LLC / int_cdfe12c3 | comment |
Nothing Is Scarier: Much of the film runs on this. The worst of what takes place happens off-camera and many of the scares are very minimalistic in execution. Whatever happened in the basement is the best example as the most the viewer ever sees is the crowd stampeding out, mannequins moving on their own, the horrified screams of the actress chained up down there begging to be let out and bloodstains on the staircase. Additionally, apart from a few lines about unexplained deaths, a suicide, and possible cult activity, the movie never explains what is behind the attacks or why. | |

Schmuck Bait | |
Hell House LLC / int_d2c0e2ed | comment |
Schmuck Bait: Even though the hotel has been closed down by the police since 2009 people have broken in to find out what happened including a photographer who takes some quick shots of the basement stairs. Sara dangles some juicy bait for Diane Graves at the end of her interview, enticing her to go to the hotel and see it for herself. Even then, it might have been alright had Diane not knocked on 2C...but Sara did give her the room number. The Hell House LLC Facebook page takes this to the meta level with several videos allegedly made by amateur ghost hunters who saw the film and went poking around in the Abaddon Hotel. Several of them lampshade this with text stating authorities have asked people to stay away from the hotel. | |

Tony comes around too and nearly walks off the project because of what happens in the basement before opening night, point-blank telling Alex Hell House isn't safe to open to the public. | |

Hell Hotel | |
Hell House LLC / int_dd608032 | comment |
Hell Hotel: The Abaddon Hotel. It starts as a creepy, abandoned building that should've been condemned and is the subject of many urban legends. It gets worse after the Hell House crew move in and convert the place into a haunted house attraction culminating in the deaths of fifteen people on opening night. | |

Hell House LLC / int_f9439c84 | comment |
Haunted House: The Hell House crew are a haunted house company who have been operating out of New York City for years and come up to Abaddon to turn the hotel into one. They didn't count on the location actually having its own ghosts. | |

The Piano Player: One of the dummies is set up at the hotel's working piano. The chord progression Paul plays on it is repeated by the piano playing on its own as things start getting worse. Paul's chords play one last time just after Diane and Jonathan drop their camera. | |
