Oct. 2026 Collection: Unwelcome Guests

The sanctuary of the home becomes a terrifying trap in these disturbing tales of sinister, unannounced guests who arrive at the door with shocking consequences. Whether the menace comes from the satanists next door in ROSEMARY’S BABY, the gang of masked home invaders who interrupt a family reunion in YOU’RE NEXT, or the seemingly innocuous acquaintance who turns up and refuses to leave in THE GIFT, these domestic nightmares invite us to consider a most unsettling question: How do we react when the horror is already inside the house?
