House on Haunted Hill, though, is strictly confined to the realm of cliche, despite some wonderfully ghoulish dialogue by screenwriter Robb White, whereas The Haunting is a full-fledged adaptation of Shirley Jackson's novel The Haunting of Hill House, complete with gorgeous narration of that book's opening paragraph: No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed, by some, to dream.

While The Haunting is a landmark ghost film, it's style is at times far, far too brash and at odds with it's ghosts and most definitely at odds with the delicate, sinewy prose of Ms. Jackson's novel.
