This is a very creepy H.P. Lovecraft Story set in New England, but filmed in Hardingham, Norfolk (UK). Ollie Reed and Flora Robson. You may have seen it on TV as a kid. If so it will have left an impression on you.
Old time suspense/horror, you have to use your intellect and imagination to enjoy this.
This is a movie I saw on TV as a young teenager and it just intrigued me! To me it was a scary, suspenseful, creepy, mystery and I really liked it! I saw it again just a few years ago and it held true...to me it was still thrilling!

This is an old film made before I was born!! But I do love it as I love the atmosphere and I'm a huge fan of Oliver Reed. I heard this was filmed in the UK and not New England like it portrays.
When i was little this film scared me to death,i have not watched it since incase it does not live up to its memory.
Saw this on t.v. back in the early 70's. Carol Lynley is always great to watch. The 'monster' in the movi is an insane aunt. But the thrills are there. Worth watching.
Wow... a forgotten major fav OReed horror. Creepy. I cant believe Flixsters db even has this flick. And, costars CLynley, whatever happened to her??
