The House of the Seven Deaths (Casa das Sete Mortes) or House of Seven Knifings (Casa das Sete Facadas) is a historic residence in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. It was constructed in the early 1600s and is located within the Historic Center of Salvador. The house is named after a murder of four individuals at the residence in 1755, despite including the designation "seven". The House of Seven Death now functions as a school and was listed as a historic structure by the National Historic and Artistic Heritage Institute (IPHAN) in 1943.
