This is another gimmicky film from William Castle featuring supposedly invisible ghosts that could only see with filtered glasses. Despite a light tone , it's been influential on movies like Poltergeist and The Amityville Horror and was remade in 2001.
Cyrus Zorba ( Donald Woods ) plays Cyrus Zorba, a financially reckless college professor who inherits an old spooky house from an uncle on condition the family move in. However both the spooky housekeeper Elaine ( Margaret Hamilton from The Wizard of Oz ) and slimy lawyer Ben Rush ( Martin Milner ) warn that the house is full of ghosts as well as hidden money.

Jo was a former beauty contestant with a promising career after appearing with Alec Guinness in Our Man in Havana. She married songwriter Jackie Barnett and retired in 1964 on giving birth to a deaf daughter. She made a brief comeback in the early 70s with a few guest roles on TV and appearances in a few trashy films. She is now 77 and lives in Oregon.
