The Haunting (1963) - October 15th

From blu-ray.com

Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has announced the Blu-ray release of director Robert Wise and screenwriter Nelson Gidding's The Haunting. The 1963 horror classic stars Julie Harris, Claire Bloom, Richard Johnson and Russ Tamblyn, and streets on October 15th.

Official Synopsis: No one lives in the 90-year-old Hill House. Or so it seems. But come in. Even if you don't believe in ghosts, there's no denying the terror of The Haunting. Wise, whose started his directorial career with The Curse of the Cat People (1944), made his return to psychological horror for this first screen adaptation of Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House. Four people (Harris, Bloom, Johnson and Tamblyn) come to the house to study its supernatural phenomena. Or has the house drawn at least one of them to it?

Warner has yet to detail tech specs or extras.

Great news. I remember the DVD had an extended section that looked as if it came from a weaker source, I hope they were able to find something better and/or do some digital magic to improve the PQ if possible (without processing it to death).
