House on Haunted Hill (1959)
Frederick Loren:
Once, the door is locked, there is no way out. The windows have bars the jail would be proud of and the only door to the outside locks like a vault.
Watson Pritchard: Only the ghosts in this house are glad we're here.
Watson Pritchard: [shows everyone a knife] This is what she used on my brother and her sister, hacked them to pieces. We found parts of their bodies all over the house, in places you wouldn't think. A funny thing is the heads have never been found, hands and feet and things like that, but no heads.
Dr. David Trent: The wife, probably in a fit of rage, threatened her husband with the knife, and then, carried away by hysteria, took a swing at him and simply went on from there.
Lance Schroeder: [laughing] She certainly went on, how many people did she kill, Mr. Pritchard?
Watson Pritchard: Only two, her husband and her sister, nobody else was here.
Lance Schroeder: So there are two loose heads just floating around here someplace?
Watson Pritchard: You can hear them at night, they whisper to each other, and then cry.
Watson Pritchard: [opening lines] The ghosts are moving tonight, restless... hungry. May I introduce myself? I'm Watson Pritchard. In just a moment I'll show you the only really haunted house in the world. Since it was built a century ago, seven people including my brother have been murdered in it, since then, I've owned the house. I only spent one night then and when they found me in the morning, I... I was almost dead.
Lance Schroeder: If I were gonna haunt somebody, this would certainly be the house I'd do it in.
Frederick Loren: Don't let the ghosts and the ghouls disturb you, love.
Annabelle Loren: Darling, the only ghoul in the house is you!
Ruth: Who would want to haunt me?
Frederick Loren: I would say any self-respecting male ghost.
Frederick Loren: Mr. Pritchard here promises us genuine ghosts.
Watson Pritchard: 7 now. Maybe more before morning.
Annabelle Loren: You're in danger here - we all are.
Nora Manning: From who?
Annabelle Loren: I hope for your sake you never find out.
Annabelle Loren: You know, of course, that I'm his fourth wife. The first simply disappeared; the other two died.
Annabelle Loren: My husband is sometimes insane with jealousy; nothing matters to him!
Lance Schroeder: Would he hurt you?
Annabelle Loren: He would kill me if he could.
Frederick Loren: Would you adore me as much if I were poor? No, all you want to be is a lovely widow.
Frederick Loren: It's almost time to lock up the house and then your party will really begin. I wonder how it will end...
Annabelle Loren: Oh, I'm sure we're not going to go running around the house shooting each other, aren't you?
Watson Pritchard: There's been a murder almost everyplace in this house!
Frederick Loren: [to Annabelle] At last you've got it all, everything I had... even my life. But you're not going to live to enjoy it! Come with me, murderess, come with me!
Frederick Loren: [posing as his skeleton] Come with me murderess. Come with me.
Frederick Loren: It's a pity you didn't know when you started your game of murder that I was playing too.
Watson Pritchard: These guns are no good against the dead. Only the living.
Frederick Loren: Don't stay up thinking of ways to get rid of me, it makes wrinkles.
Frederick Loren: I am not such a fool as to hang my wife from the ceiling, by a rope!
Watson Pritchard: [looking at blood stain on ceiling] See that stain? Blood. A young girl was killed here... and whatever got her wasn't human.
[last lines]
Watson Pritchard: They're coming for me now...
[looks at camera]
Watson Pritchard: and then they'll come for you.
Dr. David Trent: [Nora has encountered the organ that plays by itself and runs screaming through the house] Did you hear anything?
Frederick Loren: Organ music?
Dr. David Trent: That... and someone walking.
[repeated line]
Frederick Loren: [on his wife] She's so amusing.
Frederick Loren: Pritchard, I've had enough of your spook talk.
Dr. David Trent: Nora, I think you're a little upset. Would you care for a sedative?
Nora Manning: Get out! Get out all of you! All of you get out and leave me alone! Just get out of here!
Frederick Loren: Do you remember the fun we had when you poisoned me?
Annabelle Loren: [laughs] Something you ate, the doctor said.
Frederick Loren: Yes, arsenic on the rocks...
[grabs Annabelle]
Frederick Loren: Annabelle, you'd do it again if you thought you'd get away with it, wouldn't you?
Frederick Loren: [starts shaking up bottle of champagne]
Annabelle Loren: Why do you always do that? It spoils the champagne.
Frederick Loren: It might explode.
Annabelle Loren: Never does.
Frederick Loren: Can you guarantee that?
[aims champagne bottle at Annabelle]
Annabelle Loren: That isn't funny Frederick.
Frederick Loren: Make a good headline, playboy kills wife with champagne cork.
Lance Schroeder: I'm going to my room and if anybody comes in I'll "shoot him."
[looking at Ruth]
Lance Schroeder: Or her.
