When Lauren Kessler (Barbara Niven) and her father (Daniel Travanti) move into the perfect new house, they soon realize it’s not perfect at all. Two years prior, a gruesome murder was committed there and the wrong person may have been convicted. Lauren’s father– a retired attorney– begins to investigate what happened in the house while Lauren gets to know her attractive widowed neighbor Brian (Gary Hudson). But Brian knows more than he’s telling about the events in the house, and uncovering the house’s dark secrets puts the lives of both Lauren and her father in grave danger.

The film is said to be set in Philadelphia, but it’s really Ottawa, Canada.
The character called Donald Hall was actually named after my uncle. In real life, his wife’s name is Marilyn Hall, and that was the original name of his on-screen wife (Amanda’s sister) in the script. However, the name Marilyn Hall didn’t clear, so the producers went with Marlee Hall instead.
Although the movie was released on television as “Murder in My House,” the title and cover art was changed for the DVD release. The DVD title is “Blood Stains” and the cover art features a more disturbing image.
