Just outside of Dallas Texas, a violent haunted house is serving as the pulpit for a modern day fire and brimstone sermon. Hell House examines this truly American phenomenon. These houses of horror recreate scenes that graphically depict such modern-day evils as botched abortions, AIDS-related deaths, fatal drunk-driving crashes, date rapes and drug-induced suicides. Taking us behind the scenes, the documentary examines why this small town church has resorted to such graphic means of saving souls and allows us a brief glimpse of what they believe they are saving us from.
