The house from The Invitation (2015)

This is the house from the horror film The Invitation (2015).

It is located at 8105 Mulholland Terrace in Los Angeles, California.

At the start of the movie, Will and his girlfriend, Kira, attend a dinner party at this location in the Hollywood Hills.

The party is being hosted by Will's ex-wife, Eden.

Will and Eden divorced after their son's tragic death tore their marriage apart. However, since then, Eden has miraculously recovered from her grief and remarried.

Eden attributes her recovery to a "grief support group" in Sonora, Mexico, which is run by a man named Dr. Joseph.

In an apparent attempt to introduce others to her joyous new way of living, Eden invites Will, Kira, and all of their old friends to a dinner party at her expensive home.

Also present are Eden's new husband, David, and a man named Pruitta, both of whom are devout members of Dr. Joseph's organization.

During the party, Eden, David, and Pruitta give the rest of the party guests a presentation about their unique approach to death. Although the guests immediately suspect that the support group sounds like some kind of cult or MLM scheme, they eventually laugh it off and continue with the party.

However, Will remains uneasy throughout the movie, as something feels "off" about the whole affair. Baffled by Eden's ability to stop grieving about their son's death, he quickly begins to suspect that something sinister is afoot.

Unfortunately, whenever he attempts to raise his concerns, the others presume that he is overreacting due to the grief and stress of visiting his old home—the same place where his son previously died in an accident.

A strange and menacing atmosphere continues to pervade the film until it eventually transpires that the "support group" is indeed a cult.

Even worse, they are attempting to poison everyone at the dinner party.

Before the movie ends, we are shown that the party was just a small part of a much larger plan to ritualistically murder dozens of people. As the survivors of Eden's "get together" look out over the Hollywood Hills, they can hear screams, sirens, and police helicopters echoing all around them.

At that point, it becomes obvious that Dr. Joseph's cult had organized similar "parties" in other residences.
