  <review>Strange House is the debut album by The Horrors. It entered the UK album charts at No. 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 were re-recorded or remixed.

A special edition including a DVD in a gatefold digipack was also released, which contained 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.</review>
