Hell House is one of the more bizarre-looking enemies in Final Fantasy VII. It is a relatively powerful enemy for its area, Sector 6, and fights with high HP and attack. It has two forms, one where it is simply a house and one where it is more like a monster.

When it is the house it only has access to 2 moves Erupt and Hell Bomber. It has a 1/3 of using Erupt and a 2/3 chance of using Hell Bomber, however, once it reaches 336HP is has a 1/2 chance of using Suicide Drop. If it uses Suicide Drop it will inflict heavy damage upon the party, and cracks its own outer shell. Erupt inflicts standard damage and Darkness, Hell Bomber inflicts 1.5 times the damage of Erupt and Suicide Drop inflicts Earth elemental damage to all party members.

When it has changed forms Hell House's stats are boosted and it attacks differently and with different attacks altogether. It has a 1/4 chance of using Suicide Drop, a 1/4 chance of using Hell Press and a 1/2 chance of using Bodyblow. It also has access to a counter move, Lunattack, which it has a 1/4 chance of using when its health is below 25%. Bodyblow inflicts 2.5 times standard damage, Hell Press inflicts 1.5 times standard damage, Suicide Drop inflicts Earth elemental damage to all party members and Lunattack inflicts 1.75 times standard damage.

It can be considered a mild threat if not handled properly and is much more powerful than the enemies encountered up to this area of the game. It also appears as one of the possible results of Cait Sith's Slots Limit Break if you get the "Toy Box" result. It deals out 4.5 times normal damage to all enemies.
