Silent Night , Bloody Night (1972)



Released November of 1972.
Filmed entirely in New York.
The story: Diane Adams, the daughter of the local mayor, tells us her frightening story.
The last time she visited the infamous Butler mansion, there was sheer terror to be witnessed.
The grandson of the past elder Butler inherited the fine old house some years prior.
He never visited or bothered with the house for many years, until he decided he would like to sell it.
He understands the townspeople have been after him for years to sell them the house, but he wouldn't budge.
Until now.
He has sent a lawyer up to make a selling arrangement with the townspeople for him and he shall follow the next day.
Oh, yea and by the way, there happens to be an escapee from the nearby looney bin wandering about.
When the Butler guy arrives, his lawyer is missing...along with most of the towns' people who are involved in buying the house.
