Horror fans have said a 2015 flick is so scary they had to watch it through their fingers. High praise indeed, eh?
Although the movie was originally released back in 2015, it’s since found some new fans thanks to landing on streaming platforms including Amazon Prime and Shudder. You can check out a trailer here:
Hell House LLC was written and directed by Stephen Cognetti and is shot in a documentary/found footage style - think the Blair Witch but with fewer trees and more clowns - with horror fans claiming it’s one of the best movies of the genre.
In a recent post on TikTok, user @justusghouls shared the ‘movies that scared the s**t out of me’, and first up was Hell House LLC.

In the clip, he explains: “Let’s talk about the 2015 found footage horror movie Hell House LLC, because this is a genuinely f***ing creepy a** found footage horror movie.
“If you’ve never seen this movie, it’s about five friends who are documenting themselves as they renovate an abandoned hotel and turn it into a Halloween haunted horror maze. What starts off as, like, hijinks and them scaring each other - they will quickly start to suspect that this place may truly be haunted and this is all leading up to opening night on Halloween, which turns into bloody, f***ing chaos.”
Summing up the flick, he added: “Yes, this movie is genuinely f***ing creepy and it is one of the scariest found footage movies out there, in my opinion.”
And it seems others were quick to agree with one follower replying: “Hell House is the only horror film that’s EVER TRULY scared me.”

Another said: “I started watching Hell House LLC going, ‘idk if I like this doc style movie’ then watched some parts through my fingers.”
A third commented: “I love found footage movies and have never felt more on edge than with Hell House LLC!”
Someone else said: “I genuinely thought Hell House was real until the last 15 minutes.”

Meanwhile, over on X, a fellow horror fan wrote: “Watching Hell House LLC and I genuinely don’t remember the last time I watched a movie this scary. It must be the found footage format.”
And a second posted: “One of the creepiest final scenes of the last 15 years.”
The movie also spawned a couple of sequels, with a third in the works and set to drop on Shudder on 30 October.
