Meet the Cast of The Haunting of Hill House!
Bri Short as Claire
There is a house on a hill whose walls hold a dark, dark secret. On Halloween weekend, three young people will travel to Hill House believing that they are to be part of a study to cure them of their insomnia. Little do they know, the ghost of the former owner, Hugh Crane, and the other spirits who dwell in the house have a very different idea.
