Which of course is a campy classic The story is remarkably similar to that from The Haunting which is more famous and came out a few years later. Vincent Price plays an eccentric millionaire who invites a group of people to a ghost party in a haunted house he has rented. Each guest gets 10 000 dollars if they can last the night and of course all sorts of spooky stuff happens. The movie gets a bit silly occasionally, but that's alright because it doesn't feel like it takes itself too seriously. Unlike Mask of Satan, it actually had a scene which made the wife jump quite a bit so it manages to be spooky now and then too. The best thing about it was definetly Vincent Price's role.

Recommended to fans of old horror films or ghost mysteries
Vincent Price and Carol Ohmart played off each other perfectly in this movie. I could watch it over and over just to watch them bicker.
