Strange House is the debut album by The Horrors. It entered the UK album charts at #37. The band announced the title via a MySpace bulletin on 11 January 2007. It was released on 5 March 2007 on Loog Records. Several alternative titles for the album were considered, including Through Wax Seals and Padlocks, a line taken from their song "Gloves". The album consists mostly of previously released material, however several of these tracks have been re-recorded or remixed.
A special edition including a DVD in a gatefold digipack was also released, which contains three music videos ("Sheena is a Parasite", "Count in Fives", and "Gloves"), three live performances (one full-length and two short sets), an interview, and a photo gallery.

Famous quotes containing the words strange and/or house:
“By our first strange and fatal interview,”
—John Donne (1572–1631)
“Go out of the house to see the moon, and ‘t is mere tinsel; it will not please as when its light shines upon your necessary journey. The beauty that shimmers in the yellow afternoons of October, who could ever clutch it? Go forth to find it, and it is gone: ‘t is only a mirage as you look from the windows of diligence.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
