The HOUSES OF DOOM titles were retitled as GHOSTHOUSE sequels (along with Lamberto Bava's THE OGRE, I think, which was retitled as a DEMONS sequel for its US DVD release).

In the UK, Fabrizio Laurenti's WITCHCRAFT/WITCHERY was retitled GHOSTHOUSE II as a sequel to GHOSTHOUSE. In Italy WITCHCRAFT was LA CASA 4 and GHOSTHOUSE was LA CASA 3, both promoted as sequels to THE EVIL DEAD and THE EVIL DEAD II (respectively, LA CASA and LA CASA 2) rather than the US New World Pictures HOUSE series.

I would like to see a goodlooking version of GHOSTHOUSE as well. The Imperial tape in the US was uncut but incredibly dark during the opening murders (I don't know if that was censorship or some issue with the transfer because those opening scenes are brighter in other releases as are the scenes surrounding them - you can't even see the machete held near the camera in the Imperial transfer though it has a great cover which features a brighter shot of the mother's murder on the back cover).
