The House That Dripped Blood (1971) / Huset Som Drepte (UK-import)
Horror anthology comprising four tales linked by an old haunted country house starring Christopher Lee, Jon Pertwee, Peter Cushing and Denholm Elliott. In 'Method for Murder', horror writer Charles (Elliott) is haunted by a character from his latest novel. In 'Waxworks', Philip and Rogers (Cushing and Joss Ackland) visit a waxwork museum and become transfixed by a model of a woman who both men are convinced they knew. In 'Sweets to the Sweet', widower Reid (Lee) rules over his daughter Jane (Chloe Franks) in a stern and unyielding manner, not even allowing her to keep dolls. But there is a reason for this. Finally, in 'The Cloak', arrogant actor Paul Henderson (Pertwee) insists on wearing his own authentic costume for his part as a vampire. However, the black cloak he purchases seems to change Paul's behaviour whenever he wears it.
