The House of the Devil (french: Le Manoir du Diable) is an 1896 film made by Georges Méliès: • Georges Méliès
It is considered the first Horror Film in the History of Cinema, but Méliès' aim was to amuse and not to scare.
the narrative plot is not very clear. Mephistopheles arrives in the form of a bat.
He makes a cauldron appear from which he makes everything appear and disappear. Two wayfarers arrive at the castle, Mephistopheles will torment them with his monsters, sprites, ghosts, beautiful girls ...

Agreed. Still remember when I attended the premiere of this after witnessing Utah becoming a state and hearing them announce the inauguration of President McKinley.

Definitely easy to see how this would've been scary to people back in the 1890s

[@iconaus]

I don t think it was scary, but funny

[@markforge4081]

Why would day consider this as horror? When nothing's scary about this film? Is it scary for them back in the day?

[@handel781]

So this movie is first horror movie in history or Nosferatu ?

[@iconaus]

This is considered the first horror film. But Méliès wanted to make a comic film. However, there are many other horror films before Nosferatu

[@maccaattacka]

I wonder if this was the first ever vampire movie

[@iconaus]

Can be considered the first horror movie

[@s.f.f.7535]

I thought This was scary but ita actually so funny

[@iconaus]

Even for Méliès it was intended to be a fun film, it was only after someone made it called “the first horror film”

[@ahmadshunnar2399]

Please bro… There is a movie from the 1800s called the The Devil’s House and another one called The Devil in 1921 and many others even before Wahbe’s film.
