At the
haunted mansion Hell House, teenager Megan Voorhees
becomes possessed by the
spirit of Hugh Kane, the house's cruel, wicked previous owner. She interrupts a formal dinner party, thrown by her mother, who seeks help from two
Roman Catholic priests, Fathers McFeely and Harris. After an unsuccessful attempt to
exorcise Kane's ghost, McFeely pulls a gun and shoots Megan. One year later,
Cindy Campbell, Ray Wilkins, Brenda and Shorty Meeks are
attending college, trying to live new lives after surviving the events of the
first film. Cindy and Brenda are tagged by socially maladjusted Alex. Shorty is still the same stoner he was before. Ray, still confused about his sexuality, has two new male friends, Tommy and Buddy, the latter of whom becomes romantically interested in Cindy. She rebuffs him but agrees to be friends. The sinister professor Oldman and his charming paraplegic assistant, Dwight Hartman, plan to study the
paranormal activity at the Hell House. They recruit Cindy and her friends as test subjects under the pretense of a psychological experiment on
sleep paralysis. On her drive to the mansion, Cindy listens and sings badly along to "
Graduation" by
Vitamin C, who through the radio tells her to shut up. At the mansion, Cindy encounters a foul-mouthed parrot named Polly, and Hanson, a creepy caretaker with a badly malformed hand. Later, the attractive Theo joins the group. They sit down for dinner but soon lose their appetite due to Hanson's repulsive handling of the food. That night, Cindy hears voices directing her to a
secret room, where she and Buddy find the diary that belongs to Kane's wife. Seeing her portrait, they note Cindy's slight resemblance. Meanwhile, the others also experience bizarre encounters: Kane has sex with Alex in her bedroom and quickly departs at the mention of commitment and Cindy gets into a fistfight with the house cat, Mr. Kittles. When Cindy tries to tell Oldman, he dismisses it and sends Theo to take Cindy to bed. Later, Cindy is possessed by the spirit of Kane's wife, and attempts to seduce Oldman, but quickly returns to normal with no memory of the event. A toy clown attempts to kill Ray, but in a strange turn of events, the doll is molested by him instead. A monstrous weed rolls Shorty into a
joint and
proceeds to smoke him, much to Shorty's enjoyment, but gets distracted and lets him escape. The next morning, Oldman tells Dwight that no one is leaving the house despite the attacks and shows his lecherous nature. Dwight is given the only house keys and told to give them to no one. Theo offers
fellatio to Dwight in exchange for the keys, but to no avail; instead, Dwight
does it to himself. She knocks him out and takes the keys. Later that night, Oldman is seduced by the spirit of Kane's former mistress, who lures him below the mansion and reveals her true demonic form before killing him. After Dwight equips the teens with weapons that can injure their spectral enemy, they are pursued throughout the mansion. Alex attempts to win Kane's love and searches for him, but is killed by Kane dropping a chandelier on her head. Buddy and Cindy are locked in the walk-in freezer, but Cindy uses a collection of random objects to produce a
Caterpillar 2-Ton tractor and escapes the freezer. Hanson becomes possessed by Kane and kidnaps an inebriated Shorty. Cindy, Brenda, and Theo team up to battle him with highly stylized fight choreography but are defeated until Cindy successfully exorcises Kane's ghost out of Hanson. Dwight regroups with the teens, and Cindy volunteers to act as bait to lure Kane into a device that will destroy him. The plan succeeds, freeing the group from the house's curse. Two months later, Cindy and Buddy are in a relationship. They are out on a walk when Buddy disappears and Hanson arrives to take Cindy away with him. Standing in the road, Cindy screams in terror and Hanson laughs manically only to be hit by a car driven by Shorty, who is receiving fellatio from the ghost of Crane's mistress. == Cast ==
