Black House (Korean: 검은 집) is a 2007 South Korean horror film directed by Shin Tae-ra,[2] that is based on the popular Japanese novel of the same title (called Kuroi Ie) by Yusuke Kishi.

When the insurance agent opens the son's door he finds the boy hanging from a noose, dead from an apparent suicide.

The father then shows up at Joon-oh's office and asks for the money pertaining to his son's life insurance policy.

Finally Joon-oh's boss decides to pay the man his son's life insurance policy.

Joon-oh's life doesn't return to normal and in fact descends further downward because of a stalker that may well be the insurance policy holder that they just paid off.
