Horror specialist Stephen King claimed that his TV miniseries Rose Red was inspired by a number of sources, ranging from Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House (twice filmed as The Haunting) to Ripley's Believe It or Not to Moby Dick. Residents of San Jose, CA, however, quickly realized that King's story owed a great deal to their own city's legendary "haunted" mansion, Winchester House. Rose Red was set in motion when psych professor Joyce Reardon (Nancy Travis), defying her tongue-clucking boss Professor Miller (David Dukes, who died during production), set about to investigate reports of paranormal phenomena in Rose Red, a crumbling and foreboding Seattle mansion. According to legend -- and a great deal of physical evidence -- Rose Red was a "living" entity in its own right, adding extras wings to its structure and rearranging its furniture whenever it felt like it. There has also been a number of mysterious deaths at the mansion, which Joyce believed were the handiwork of a ghost: Ellen Rimbauer, the insane wife of Rose Red's architect. Inviting a quintet of psychics (social misfits all, of course) to spend a weekend at the mansion, Joyce was determined to solve the mystery of Rose Red -- and, she hoped, to conjure up Ellen's hostile spirit. Thereafter, the miniseries adhered to the proven formula, with characters foolishly wandering off alone to meet their individual demises, and with such time-tested lines as "Superstitious nonsense!," "Honey -- are you in there?" and "Oh, no! AIYEEEE!" wafting through the mansion's drafty corridor. The outcome of the story -- and the fate of the survivors -- seemed to rest in the hands of Annie Wheaton (Kimberly J. Brown), an autistic teenager with astonishing telepathic skills. Premiering January 27, 2002, the three-part Rose Red posted ABC's best ratings in months, despite an almost universal drubbing by the critics. Hal Erickson, Rovi

Horror fans tend to feel that Stephen King created the ultimate haunted house when he wrote The Shining. Nope! With that classic chiller, he created the ultimate haunted HOTEL! If you want to visit the scariest haunted HOUSE this master of terror could have invented, all you have to do is to watch this terrifying miniseries to accept your invitation inside the huge, forbidding Rose Red! Professor Joyce Reardon, a teacher at the local college, invites a group of gifted psychics, including autistic, 15-year-old Annie Wheaton, to spend a weekend in the notorious mansion called Rose Red, which is almost a century old. For decades, the house, which has a troubled, tragic history, has been reputed to be haunted, which includes the disappearances of many people. During the three days within the walls of the house that is even said to occasionally grow on its own, Annie, Joyce, and the others will learn just what kinds of supernatural terrors the house is capable of as they fight to survive the evil in its walls. At slightly longer than 4 hours, Rose Red is a movie that will take patience to watch, but you will relish being scared senseless by this original fright-fest written by the King of Horror!
