If it weren't for the last ten-or-so minutes, this movie would be committing the unpardonable sin of being dull. The plot, such as it is, concerns a doctor who inherits a mansion from one of his patients. The Mansion is said to be haunted. A subplot of missing money hidden in the house also figures into this plot. The first eighty minutes consist of a collection of non-threatening scares and the introduction of Christopher Lee and Joan Collins as conniving next-door neighbors looking for hidden money. In the last ten or so minutes, there is a flashback explaining what occurred in the house that put the original owner into an Asylum. A minor twist makes the movie slightly palatable. This movie is only good as a trivia question. The question? What movie did Joan Collins and Christopher Lee star in?
