Excellent casting decision as Mean Creek‘s Scott Mechlowicz, pictured, has joined the cast of Dimension’s untitled James Wan Presents thriller, formerly House of Horror, starring Maria Bello and Frank Grillo.

Wan, director of Insidious, Saw, Dead Silence and the forthcoming The Conjuring, will produce with Will Canon directing.

Wan also came up with the story which revolves around a policeman and a psychologist who interrogate the lone survivor of a ghost-hunting excursion that resulted in the deaths of five people. Max La Bella penned the script.

“The film centers on the aftermath of a horrific massacre: five college students, brutally murdered inside a decrepit, abandoned home. Fresh on the scene, detective Mark Lewis and the police department’s psychologist, Dr. Elizabeth Klein (Bello), question one of the few survivors who explains they were amateur ghost-hunters, seeking out paranormal phenomenon at the abandoned house, believed to be haunted. But what started out as a harmless activity turned into something truly terrifying, and the suspect claims the responsibility doesn’t lie with any of the inhabitants, but with the house itself.“
