DC Showcase - Constantine: The House of Mystery

Enter a world where magic can't save you.

RELEASED 2 May 20220h 27m★ 6.8 TMDB

John Constantine wakes up in the eerie House of Mystery with no recollection of how he got there. Fortunately, Zatanna and his friends are all there. Unfortunately, they have a bad habit of turning into demons and ripping him to shreds, over and over again!

Why it matters in DC

Constantine's confinement in the House of Mystery gives the supernatural corner of the animated collection a more intimate focus. Positioned after Apokolips War in this catalogue, it works as a character-centred follow-up rather than another large team confrontation.

Where it fits in the DC universe

DC Showcase - Constantine: The House of Mystery is title 16 of 16 in our DC Animated Movie Universe viewing sequence. The House of Mystery follows the Constantine strand left by Apokolips War and is best treated as an epilogue to that connected film sequence. Apokolips War is the relevant immediate background. The shared Constantine name does not connect it directly to the live-action film or the separate television series.
