    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      The film was shot at Oakley Court, a Victorian Gothic country house in Berkshire, England, which previously was the home of Hammer Films. Three years later, The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) would also be filmed there.
    • Goofs
      The movie takes place in 1795, and, while she sure can scream, Stephanie Beacham has amalgam fillings in her teeth - something that was introduced in France about 50 years later.
    • Quotes
      • [Charles explains that his family's ancestral manse is haunted]
      • Charles Fengriffen: Ghosts galore. Headless horsemen, horseless headsmen, everything.
    • Alternate versions
      US version is missing two scenes from the original British release: Peter Cushing's discovery of an eyeless corpse and Ian Ogilvy's smashing the skeleton against a gravestone.
