Broadway's 'Grey House' delivers expert haunting and campy horror.

"Grey House," a new thriller play directed by Joe Mantello, opened on Broadway's Lyceum Theatre. The play follows a couple who seek shelter in an isolated cabin during a snowstorm, only to find themselves in the midst of a supernatural halfway house.
