"House Of Horror" is the name of two different tracks, with one consisting of five parts composed by William Merrick Farran and the second one composed by Larry Hochman.

Both tracks are played using low strings, a timpani, snare drum, higher strings, a glockenspiel, an oboe, a bassoon, cymbals, and low brass instruments. These tracks are mainly used for frightening, eerie, and horrifying moments.

The first version is mostly used for the dramatic stab at the end.

This version features many "creepy" elements into the piece, more notably the combination of high violins and glockenspiels. Trumpets play dischordantly in addition. It is used mostly during creepy and scary moments.

This is the more ghostly part of the piece, as it features ghostly-sounding sopranos and high violins. It is used mostly during creepy moments.

This version is the "scary" part of the piece. It is often used in scenes where threatening moments are prevalent. Sometimes only the dramatic stab at the end is used to show dramatic effect of a dangerous, gross, or threatening moment. It is mostly used during scary or intense moments.

This version has several parts within. The first part is a mixture of high-pitched violins, a piano, lower brass, cymbals, and a piano, which quickly accelerate in tempo later on. The second part involves violins, piano, and timpani leading into violins and snare drum, accompanied throughout with short bursts from trumpets.
