Synopsis:

Existing outside the boundaries of reality, House of Dreams is a lost chapter of mid-century, avant garde horror from director Robert Berry. The story follows Lee (Berry), a frustrated author who is plagued by recurring nightmares centered around a haunted house. Shot on gritty 16mm film stock in Indiana and never legitimately distributed, House of Dreams is a sincere, abstract, and melancholy haunting that would feel right at home on a triple feature with Meshes of the Afternoon and Carnival of Souls.
