haunted house
Ghost-infested residence
A haunted house is a building supposedly inhabited by ghosts or other supernatural entities.
The term applies both to places with genuine folklore—The old mansion has been considered a haunted house for generations—and to commercial attractions designed to frighten visitors, especially around Halloween: We're taking the kids to the haunted house this weekend.
