Editorial Reviews

Gimmick-loving producer William Castle strikes again with this fun haunted-house thriller which invited audiences to find the hidden ghosts roaming about a haunted house through a special process called "Illusion-O" by which patrons could employ a special pair of red-and-blue-colored glasses to detect ghosts on the screen during the film's color-tinted sequences. The story is set in the mansion of the deceased occult scientist Dr. Zorba, whose nephew Cyrus and his family occupy the creepy estate and discover that they are not the only tenants. It seems the Doctor has been harboring 12 elusive specters on the premises, the appearance of which can only be detected through his final invention: a special pair of ghost-viewing goggles. To further complicate matters, it is learned that Zorba has stashed a small fortune somewhere in the house, and someone -- or something -- is determined to stop Cyrus and family from finding it. This film's original release featured an introduction from Castle, describing the "Illusion-O" process and demonstrating the proper use of the tinted glasses; he also appears in an epilogue stating that the glasses can be used to detect ghosts outside the theater!

November 14, 2003: I saw this terrifying movie as a kid and it scared the daylights out of me - I had an 'Illusion-O' 'ghost viewer' and my brother was going to throw me in a closet with it so I could see if there were spooks on the loose in our house. I kicked and screamed when he grabbed me! This is a great late-night popcorn and soda movie the whole family can get scared with together. Yes, that's Margaret Hamilton aka The Wicked Witch of the West from 'The Wizard of Oz,' in the film as the housekeeper. Lots of black and white spooktacular fun!
