00:00:00I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you
00:00:30The ghosts are moving tonight, restless, hungry.
00:00:53May I introduce myself?
00:00:56I'm Watson Pritchard.
00:00:59In just a minute, I'll show you the only really haunted house in the world.
00:01:04Since it was built a century ago, seven people, including my brother, have been murdered in it.
00:01:11Since then, I've owned the house.
00:01:16I've only spent one night there, and when they found me in the morning, I was almost dead.
00:01:31I'm Frederick Lauren, and I've rented the house on Haunted Hill tonight so that my wife can give a party.
00:01:38A haunted house party.
00:01:42She's so amusing.
00:01:44There'll be food and drink and ghosts, and perhaps even a few murders.
00:01:50You're all invited.
00:01:52If any of you will spend the next 12 hours in this house, I'll give you each $10,000, or your next of kin in case you don't survive.
00:02:02Ah, but here come our other guests.
00:02:08It was my wife's idea to have our guests come in funeral cars.
00:02:14She's so amusing.
00:02:16Her sense of humor is, shall we say, original.
00:02:19I dreamed up the hearse.
00:02:21It's empty now, but after a night in the house on Haunted Hill, who knows?
00:02:28This is Lance Schroeder, a test pilot, so no doubt a brave man.
00:02:33But don't you think you can be much braver if you're paid for it?
00:02:37And I happen to know that Lance needs the $10,000 I'll give him, if he's brave enough to stay all night.
00:02:44This is Ruth Bridges.
00:02:46You've no doubt read her column in the newspapers.
00:02:48She says her reason for coming to the party is to write a feature article on ghosts.
00:02:53She's also desperate for money.
00:02:56Gambles.
00:02:59You've already met Watson Pritchard, a man living in mortal fear of a house,
00:03:04and yet he is risking his life to spend another night here.
00:03:07I wonder why.
00:03:09He says for money.
00:03:13This is Dr. David Trent, a psychiatrist.
00:03:16He claims that my ghosts will help his work on hysteria.
00:03:20But don't you see a little touch of greed there, around the mouth and eyes?
00:03:28This is Nora Manning.
00:03:30I picked her from the thousands of people who work for me because she needed the $10,000 more than most.
00:03:36Supports her whole family.
00:03:38Isn't she pretty?
00:03:43The party's starting now,
00:03:46and you have until midnight to find the house on Haunted Hill.
00:04:16♪♪
00:04:26♪♪
00:04:36♪♪
00:04:46♪♪
00:04:56♪♪
00:05:06♪♪
00:05:16♪♪
00:05:26♪♪
00:05:36♪♪
00:05:46♪♪
00:05:56♪♪
00:06:06♪♪
00:06:16♪♪
00:06:26Well, where is everybody?
00:06:36It isn't a very warm welcome, is it?
00:06:38Only the ghosts in this house are glad we're here.
00:06:43Are we all strangers to each other?
00:06:46Don't you two know each other?
00:06:48I'm afraid I don't even know your name.
00:06:50I'm Nora Manning.
00:06:51Lance Schroeder.
00:06:53This is Frederick Lawren, a friend of yours.
00:06:55I've heard of him, but I've never met him.
00:06:57I work for one of his companies, but I've never seen him.
00:07:00I've never met the man either.
00:07:02Just a phone call.
00:07:03Do you know him?
00:07:05No.
00:07:06Well, then you're the only one of us who does.
00:07:09I don't know him.
00:07:10All the details about renting the house were done by mail.
00:07:13He's quite wealthy, isn't he?
00:07:15Millions.
00:07:16And five wives, I believe.
00:07:18Four, I think, so far.
00:07:20A $50,000 party for only five people is a little steep,
00:07:23even for a millionaire.
00:07:28Well, if I were going to haunt anybody,
00:07:30this would certainly be the house I'd do it in.
00:07:37Who closed the door?
00:07:39This thing's made of solid steel.
00:08:10Annabelle.
00:08:12Our guests are here and fortunately still alive.
00:08:15Is your face on yet?
00:08:20Dust and dirt everywhere.
00:08:22The water barely trickles.
00:08:24Couldn't you have had the place cleaned?
00:08:26Atmosphere, darling.
00:08:27You know how ghosts are.
00:08:28They're never tidy.
00:08:29They're always on the move.
00:08:31I'm sure you've seen them before.
00:08:33I'm sure you've seen them before.
00:08:35I'm sure you've seen them before.
00:08:37Darling, you know how ghosts are.
00:08:38They never tidy up.
00:08:40That's a very fetching outfit,
00:08:42but hardly suitable for a party.
00:08:44I'm not going to the party.
00:08:46This spend-the-night ghost party was your idea, remember?
00:08:49Since it's going to cost me $50,000,
00:08:51I want you to have fun.
00:08:53The party was my idea until you invited all the guests.
00:08:57Why all these strangers?
00:08:58Why none of our friends?
00:09:00Friends?
00:09:01Do we have any friends?
00:09:03No, your jealousy took care of that.
00:09:06I had a reason for inviting each guest.
00:09:09I wanted kind of a cross-section,
00:09:11from psychiatrist to typist
00:09:14and from drunk to jet pilot.
00:09:17They share one thing.
00:09:18They all need money.
00:09:20Now let's see if they're brave enough to earn it.
00:09:24And you call this a party?
00:09:26Could be.
00:09:32Why do you always do that?
00:09:33It spoils the champagne.
00:09:35It might explode.
00:09:37Never does.
00:09:39Would you guarantee that?
00:09:42That isn't funny, Frederick.
00:09:44Make a good headline.
00:09:45Playboy kills wife with champagne cork.
00:09:50Will you join me?
00:09:52No, thank you.
00:09:54Just a sip might improve your humor.
00:09:57My humor is fine, thanks.
00:09:59And I haven't poisoned it.
00:10:02It's always good to know that.
00:10:09Have some.
00:10:10You'll enjoy the party more.
00:10:13Go on.
00:10:23Your trust is so touching.
00:10:25And I'm not going to the party.
00:10:27Of all my wives, you're the least agreeable.
00:10:30You're still alive.
00:10:32Would you go away for a million dollars, tax-free?
00:10:37You want it all, don't you?
00:10:39I deserve it all.
00:10:41Your jealousy isn't tax-free.
00:10:44Your possessiveness is maddening.
00:10:47If ever a man had grounds for divorce...
00:10:50That can't prove them.
00:10:52The time will come.
00:10:54You'll slip up one of these days.
00:10:56Think so?
00:10:57If I live long enough.
00:11:00Do you remember the fun we had when you poisoned me?
00:11:05Something you ate, the doctor said.
00:11:07Yes.
00:11:08Arsenic on the rocks.
00:11:11Annabelle.
00:11:13You'd do it again if you thought you could get away with it, wouldn't you?
00:11:16Darling, what makes you think that?
00:11:19Something about you.
00:11:24I hear that hanging is very uncomfortable.
00:11:27In case you get any more ideas.
00:11:30Don't let the ghosts and the ghouls disturb you, darling.
00:11:34Darling, the only ghoul in the house is you.
00:11:38And don't sit up all night thinking of ways to get rid of me.
00:11:42It makes wrinkles.
00:11:58This is what she used on my brother and her sister.
00:12:01Hacked them to pieces.
00:12:03We found parts of the bodies all over the house.
00:12:05In places you wouldn't think.
00:12:08The funny thing is the heads have never been found.
00:12:11Hands and feet and things like that.
00:12:13But no heads.
00:12:15The wife, probably in a rage, threatened her husband with a knife...
00:12:18And then, carried away by hysteria, took a swing at him and simply went on from there.
00:12:22She certainly went on.
00:12:24How many people did she kill, Mr. Pritchard?
00:12:26Only two.
00:12:28Her husband and her sister. No one else was here.
00:12:30So there are two loose heads just floating around in here somewhere?
00:12:34You can hear them at night.
00:12:36They whisper to each other.
00:12:38And then cry.
00:12:40Since our host isn't here, would anyone care to mix me a drink?
00:12:44Certainly. What will you have?
00:12:50Good evening.
00:12:53I'm your host, Frederick Loren.
00:12:56Since we're all strangers to each other, let's get acquainted with a drink, shall we?
00:13:00Mr. Loren.
00:13:02I advise you to call this party off now.
00:13:05The ghosts are already moving and that's a bad sign.
00:13:08Let me apologize for my wife. She'll join us later.
00:13:10What will you have?
00:13:11Scotch and...
00:13:12Doctor?
00:13:13I'll have the same.
00:13:15Now, before the party begins, let's go over the details.
00:13:20The caretakers will leave at midnight, locking us in here until they come back in the morning.
00:13:26Once the door is locked, there's no way out.
00:13:29The windows have bars that a jail would be proud of.
00:13:33And the only door to the outside locks like a vault.
00:13:37There's no electricity, no phone, no one within miles.
00:13:42So, no way to call for help.
00:13:46Like a coffin.
00:13:50So, if any of you decide not to stay for the party, you must let me know before midnight.
00:13:55Of course, if you leave, I shan't be able to pay you anything.
00:14:00I'm interested in your reasons for this party.
00:14:05Aside from pleasant company.
00:14:08Ghosts, Doctor.
00:14:10I think everyone wonders what they would do if they saw a ghost.
00:14:17And now my wife has given us all the opportunity to find out.
00:14:21Amusing.
00:14:22Ghosts, etc., being only creations of hysteria, your party should be a success.
00:14:28Well, Pritchard here promises us genuine ghosts.
00:14:31Seven now.
00:14:33Maybe more before morning.
00:14:36That's cheerful.
00:14:38Four men have been murdered in this house.
00:14:42And three women.
00:14:43You planned your party very well, Mr. Loren.
00:14:46Four of us are men, three are women.
00:14:49A ghost for everybody.
00:14:51Well, Pritchard, why don't you take us on a tour through the house and let's see what happens.
00:15:06See that stain?
00:15:08Blood.
00:15:11A young girl was killed here.
00:15:13And whatever got her wasn't human.
00:15:15Don't stand there.
00:15:16What do you mean?
00:15:17Where?
00:15:30It's too late.
00:15:31They've marked you.
00:15:32Ridiculous.
00:15:33The roof probably leaks.
00:15:34Well, that must be what it is.
00:15:36Who would want to haunt me?
00:15:37I would say any self-respecting male ghost.
00:15:40I hope it doesn't come back.
00:15:42Well, Mr. Pritchard, you're the life of the party.
00:15:44He hasn't even started yet.
00:15:46Wasn't there a man who threw his wife into a wine vat or something?
00:15:50That was in the cellar.
00:15:51There's been a murder almost every place in this house.
00:16:11All this belonged to a Mr. Norton.
00:16:14Who didn't die here.
00:16:15He was electrocuted later.
00:16:20Mr. Norton did a good deal of experimenting with wines.
00:16:25But his wife didn't think it was any good.
00:16:28So he filled the vat with acid and threw her in.
00:16:33She was supposed to stay down.
00:16:36But the bones came up.
00:16:39It's a funny thing.
00:16:41But none of the murders here were just ordinary.
00:16:45Just shooting or stabbing.
00:16:49They've all been sort of wild.
00:16:52Violent and different.
00:16:54Look out!
00:16:57God, she didn't fall in.
00:16:59You mean there's still acid in there?
00:17:26Destroys everything with hair and flesh.
00:17:30Just leaves the bones.
00:17:44My, it's dry and dusty down here.
00:17:48Well, there's a cure for that upstairs.
00:17:52Come on.
00:18:06How did you get invited to this party?
00:18:10Oh, go on.
00:18:13I mean, what did he tell you?
00:18:18Mr. Lawrence said everybody would get $10,000.
00:18:21But he didn't say anything about being locked in.
00:18:24No.
00:18:26He just made a deal with me on the phone.
00:18:28But nothing about having to stay.
00:18:31Aren't you going to stay?
00:18:33If I don't, I lose $10,000.
00:18:37I'm going to stay too.
00:18:40$10,000.
00:18:42Yeah.
00:18:44You believe in ghosts?
00:18:47I don't know.
00:18:49Well, I agree with what that doc says.
00:18:51You can spook yourself.
00:18:52I've done it in planes.
00:18:54Seen things that weren't really there.
00:18:56Or were they?
00:18:59What are you going to do with your $10,000?
00:19:01If we get it.
00:19:03What do you mean, if we get it?
00:19:05Won't he pay us if we stay?
00:19:07Sure he will.
00:19:08$10,000 is no more to him than a nickel is to us.
00:19:12We were in an automobile accident.
00:19:14Now I'm the only one in the family who can make any money.
00:19:18Boy, I've never seen so many doors.
00:19:27Closet.
00:19:39Bottles.
00:19:49Closet.
00:19:58Does it go anywhere?
00:20:02Lance!
00:20:04Lance!
00:20:09Lance!
00:20:18Lance!
00:20:49Help me.
00:20:51Please.
00:20:52Lance is gone, and there's a ghost.
00:20:54See what I mean?
00:20:55Please, come on.
00:20:57Did she say Lance is gone?
00:20:59Gone where?
00:21:02We'll have to break it down. It's locked.
00:21:04Locked?
00:21:21I'm sorry, but I can't do it.
00:21:23I'm sorry, but I can't do it.
00:21:25I'm sorry, but I can't do it.
00:21:27I'm sorry, but I can't do it.
00:21:30I'm sorry.
00:21:33I'm sorry, but I can't do it.
00:21:35I'm sorry, but I can't do it.
00:21:55You all right?
00:21:57bandage on it. I wonder why they didn't kill him. Who? He didn't bump his head. They hit
00:22:14him. They? Nora, when you came in you said something about a ghost. There was something.
00:22:42What did it look like? Well, it was wearing a black thing that went all the way to the
00:22:47floor. Weren't you a little frightened at the time? Well, yes. That, Mr. Loren, is
00:22:55hysteria. Then, Doctor, how do you explain what happened to Lance? Was that hysteria
00:23:00too? You better get that checked in a day or so. Thanks, Doc. Wait for me in the hall.
00:23:22The ghosts are coming closer, Mr. Loren. You really believe in your pet ghost, don't you,
00:23:28Before the night's over, you will, too. Wouldn't you like a drink, Lance? No, thanks. I'd like one.
00:23:34It's got to end. Mr. Loren, are you really going to pay anyone who stays all night? Certainly.
00:23:47Ten thousand dollars. Will there be much red tape or delay? In a hurry, dear? Frankly, yes.
00:23:55Or frantically. There you are, my dear.
00:24:01Someone or something was in here when I came in. But where? And if the door was locked,
00:24:29how did it get out? What you saw might have been a ghost snore, but what was in here with me was
00:24:35no ghost. I don't know. I was so scared. That sound different to you? Yes.
00:25:06Three, six, nine, twelve. Twelve feet. Three, six. I'm going to knock on the other wall. When you hear me,
00:25:24you knock on this wall. Tap lower down.
00:25:55Oh, Lance! I saw it again! Where'd it come from? From in here. What if it ran out of here? I'd have seen it.
00:26:20Lance, it doesn't run. It just floats. Yeah, but why didn't I see it? You don't believe me.
00:26:51I'm Annabel Lauren. You must be Miss Manning. I realize this is a very unusual and, I'm afraid,
00:27:01very dull party. Wouldn't you like to freshen up? This is your room. Depressing, isn't it?
00:27:20I doubt if I'll spend much time here. It's going to rain. Perfect atmosphere for my husband's party.
00:27:28Why did you come here? He said he'd give me $10,000. Why did he pick you? I don't know. My
00:27:39supervisor just came and said I'd been invited. How long have you known my husband? I just met
00:27:49him tonight. So? Why you? What were you doing wandering around by yourself? Well, I was in the
00:28:03cellar with Lance, Mr. Schroeder, and I just left, that's all. Don't do it again. Don't go anywhere in
00:28:13this house by yourself. Now fix your face and I'll come by for you in a few minutes. But I... You're in
00:28:21danger. We all are. But who? I hope for your sake you never find out.
00:28:44I'm Annabelle Lauren. Were you looking for something? Not exactly. Are you the doctor? No,
00:28:49no, I'm Lance Schroeder. The pilot. You've hurt yourself. Oh, it's just a bump on the head. Which
00:28:57is my room? I believe this is it. Thank you, Mrs. Lauren. Annabelle Lance.
00:29:13You were with the young girl in the cellar. Why was she so upset? Was she? And you don't look like the
00:29:22type to go around bumping his head. What really happened, Lance? Well, Nora thought she saw a ghost,
00:29:28but I didn't see anything. She was just frightened then. Ann mad at me, I think. I kidded her about
00:29:34it. I wouldn't joke about anything else that happens here tonight. Now don't tell me you're
00:29:40taking all this seriously. Aren't you? Well, I'd like to find out what hit me. Lance, if I need help,
00:29:52may I count on you? Sure, I guess so. Look, what's going on here anyway? I mean, what is with this
00:30:02party? This is no party. He's planning something. Your husband? I wish I knew what it was. Must be
00:30:09pretty big if he's gonna lay out $50,000. The money doesn't mean anything. He has a reason for
00:30:15getting us all up here to this dreadful old house. What for? He doesn't even know us. Maybe that's
00:30:21exactly why you're here. What can he get away with? Oh, he thinks that big money like his can get away
00:30:28with anything. You know, of course, that I'm his fourth wife. The first simply disappeared. The other
00:30:35two died. Lance, I don't want to join them. You mean he... Oh, his doctor said they died of heart
00:30:46attacks. Two girls in their 20s. Well, what can he do? My husband is sometimes insane with jealousy.
00:30:56Nothing matters to him then. Please be careful. Would he hurt you? He would kill me if he could.
00:31:27Annabelle, you're missing all the fun. Nora Manning was almost killed by a falling chandelier. The pilot
00:31:33bashed his head in. Is he badly hurt? The Saturday night psychiatrist bandaged him up. Don't you want
00:31:40to go and console him, as you do most men in your fashion? You're so clever, Frederick. Yes, I lie awake
00:31:49nights wondering why I married you. It was rather a mistake. You didn't marry me, dear. I married you,
00:31:55unpleasant, but no mistake. Hurry up. Frederick, for the last time, I'm not going to your party. For the last
00:32:04time, it's not my party, but yours. And you are going. I am not. Are you ready, dear? No. Are you ready, dear? Yes,
00:32:18damn you. Would you adore me as much if I were poor? No. All you want to be is a lovely widow. It's almost time to
00:32:28lock up the house, and then your party will really begin. I wonder how it'll end.
00:32:36It's close to midnight, Lance. Okay. I'll be down in a minute.
00:33:07Who is it? Your host, my dear. It's almost midnight, Nora. We're all going to get together down in the living room.
00:33:15All right, Mr. Lloyd. I'll be right down.
00:33:45I'll be right down.
00:34:16Come with us. Come with us before he kills you.
00:34:32Where's Nora? Miss Manning?
00:34:34Miss Manning?
00:34:41I don't want to stay here. Nora, what happened?
00:34:55That's Jonas Slides and his wife. They've been caretakers here for years. She's blind, you know.
00:35:03I'm not going to stay here.
00:35:08Doctor, it looks like we have a real case of hysteria on our hands.
00:35:12I think she's just a little upset. Not hysterical.
00:35:22Good evening.
00:35:24Hello, my dear. This is my wife. These are our guests.
00:35:30Ruth Bridges, Dr. Trent, you know Watson Pritchett, of course, Nora Manning, and this is Lance Schroeder.
00:35:46Get me out of here.
00:35:48What about the $10,000?
00:35:50I don't care. He wants to kill me.
00:35:51Who wants to kill you?
00:35:53Mr. Lawrence.
00:35:55May I have your attention, please? I think you all remember the bargain we made about staying all night.
00:36:02$10,000 apiece. If any of you don't survive, $50,000 will be divided amongst the rest of you.
00:36:11If I should die,
00:36:16you will be paid by my estate.
00:36:18When the door is locked from the outside by the caretakers, we'll all be forced to stay in this house until morning.
00:36:24If any of you decide not to stay, you must leave with the caretakers now.
00:36:28You won't have a chance to change your minds later, because there'll be no way to get out.
00:36:34I don't want to stay.
00:36:36Wait.
00:36:49It isn't midnight yet. Who told them they could leave?
00:36:52They never leave before midnight.
00:36:54Well, they've gone now.
00:36:56I was going to ask you whether you wanted to stay or not, but it seems that the caretakers have made the decision for you.
00:37:03We're all locked in now.
00:37:05But I don't want to stay.
00:37:07I don't want to stay.
00:37:09I don't want to stay.
00:37:11I don't want to stay.
00:37:13I don't want to stay.
00:37:15We're all locked in now.
00:37:17But I don't want to stay.
00:37:19I'm sorry, my dear, but it's too late now.
00:37:22Darling, haven't you had enough of this silly game?
00:37:25Get some cars up here for these people and let them go home.
00:37:29But pay them first.
00:37:32This is your party.
00:37:34Remember?
00:37:37In spite of my wife's faith in my ability to do the impossible,
00:37:40we will all have to stay in this house until eight o'clock in the morning.
00:37:44But we have some party favors for you in these little coffins.
00:37:54This is my wife's idea.
00:37:56I must say, I think it's rather dangerous.
00:37:59I suppose you all know how to use one of these things, but in case you don't,
00:38:03you just press down on this lever with your thumb and then pull the trigger.
00:38:11You see, they're loaded.
00:38:16These are no good against the dead, only the living.
00:38:21Doctor?
00:38:24Lance?
00:38:29Nora?
00:38:32Go ahead, take it.
00:38:34Miss Bridgers?
00:38:40And here's yours, dear.
00:38:42I don't need it.
00:38:44It was your idea.
00:38:46Who knows, you may want to use it on me before this night is over.
00:38:52Throw these guns away, they won't do you any good.
00:38:55I agree with Pritchard on that point, although not for the same reason.
00:38:58Dr. Trent.
00:39:01Don't you approve of our little party favors?
00:39:06Suppose Nora had had a gun when she mistook the blind woman for a ghost.
00:39:10I don't think anyone else is going to walk around in total darkness.
00:39:14Oh, I'm sure we're not going to go running around the house shooting each other, aren't you?
00:39:19Who knows?
00:39:21Fear makes people run around in total darkness.
00:39:23Mr. Pritchard.
00:39:25You said your sister-in-law killed a man and a woman here and cut them up?
00:39:29You said they found hands and feet, but they never found any heads.
00:39:33Would you like to see one of those heads?
00:39:35Would you all like to see one of those heads?
00:39:38Well, then, just follow me.
00:39:42I'm going to kill you.
00:39:44I'm going to kill you.
00:39:46I'm going to kill you.
00:39:48I'm going to kill you.
00:39:50I'm going to kill you.
00:39:51Just follow me.
00:40:01Darling.
00:40:03I really don't need this.
00:40:05Just go look in my suitcase.
00:40:07Just go look.
00:40:35But it was in there.
00:40:37A woman's head.
00:40:39Nora, I think you're a little upset.
00:40:42Would you care for a sedative?
00:40:44Get out! Get out, all of you!
00:40:46All of you, get out of here and leave me alone!
00:40:48Just get out of here!
00:40:54You think it's all right to leave her by herself, Doctor?
00:40:57I wish she'd taken the sedative.
00:40:59What do you suppose she thought she saw?
00:41:01They're closing in on her.
00:41:02Look, Doc, I think somebody ought to stay with her.
00:41:04There could be a million people around her.
00:41:06If they wanted her, they'd get her.
00:41:10What if he's right?
00:41:12He's too drunk to know what he's talking about.
00:41:14I wonder.
00:41:16I'll join you in a minute.
00:41:23Do you think it would do any good
00:41:25if you went in and talked to her?
00:41:27Do you think there really was a head in her suitcase?
00:41:30I don't know.
00:41:32A thing like that would put me right over the edge.
00:41:35Look, would you sort of stay up here,
00:41:37I mean, in case she needs help?
00:41:39All right.
00:41:41I'll be in my room.
00:41:43Just call if you need me.
00:41:45Thanks.
00:41:56Are you sure there are only seven people in this house?
00:41:59Positive.
00:42:00Except for the ghosts.
00:42:02I don't believe in ghosts.
00:42:04Nor in frightening women.
00:42:06In Nora's case, it's gone far enough.
00:42:09Perhaps too far.
00:42:11What do you suggest we do about it, Doctor?
00:42:13Don't frighten her anymore.
00:42:30Nora?
00:42:40Nora?
00:42:44Nora?
00:42:54Nora?
00:43:00Nora?
00:43:19Nora!
00:43:22Nora!
00:43:31What do you know about this?
00:43:33They've taken her.
00:43:35In a little while, she'll be one of them.
00:43:39Where's Nora?
00:43:41Where is she?
00:43:43It's too late. It's too late.
00:43:45You'll never find her again.
00:43:47Pritchard, if you know where she is,
00:43:49you better tell me now.
00:43:51She's gone. She's gone with them.
00:43:53And there's nothing you can do about it.
00:44:00Nora.
00:44:08Nora.
00:44:19Take her down.
00:44:30Nora.
00:44:56Nora?
00:45:01She's dead, Mr. Lauren.
00:45:04Your wife hanged herself.
00:45:07Suicide.
00:45:31Lance.
00:45:33Nora.
00:45:34Lance, hide me. Please, hide me.
00:45:36What's the matter?
00:45:37Hide me.
00:45:46He tried to kill me.
00:45:49He grabbed me and choked me and put me in that room.
00:45:52And then he went away and left me.
00:45:54I don't know what to do.
00:45:56I don't know what to do.
00:45:58I don't know what to do.
00:46:00He...
00:46:01Who?
00:46:03He thought I was dead.
00:46:05Who?
00:46:07Mr. Lauren.
00:46:10Are you sure about this?
00:46:13I don't know.
00:46:14It was dark, but it must have been him.
00:46:18Has anybody seen you since he left you?
00:46:21I heard some people in that room,
00:46:23but I went by and nobody saw me.
00:46:27Mrs. Lauren is dead.
00:46:30How?
00:46:35Lauren said she committed suicide,
00:46:37but I think somebody killed her.
00:46:39Him?
00:47:00I don't know.
00:47:18I'm sure you've come to the same conclusion I have.
00:47:20Yes, I think so.
00:47:22Let's all have a meeting, discuss what to do.
00:47:24The living room?
00:47:26Okay, in a minute.
00:47:31I've got to go downstairs.
00:47:33Now, you lock yourself in here
00:47:35and don't let anybody know you're here.
00:47:37If he thinks you're dead, he won't come here,
00:47:39and I'll get back as soon as I can.
00:47:41You'll be all right.
00:47:47And if you have to,
00:47:49you'll have to come with me.
00:47:51You'll have to come with me.
00:47:53You'll have to come with me.
00:47:55You'll have to come with me.
00:47:57You'll have to come with me.
00:47:58You have to.
00:48:00You use it.
00:48:28You use it.
00:48:54So beautiful.
00:48:56So greedy.
00:48:59So cold.
00:49:06What are you doing in here?
00:49:08Wait. Don't wait.
00:49:10What do you mean, coming in here?
00:49:12I didn't want them to take her away.
00:49:14You're drunk.
00:49:16They will if you don't watch it.
00:49:18You're drunk.
00:49:20All right, out with it, Bridget.
00:49:22Why did you come into this room?
00:49:23My wife isn't there anymore.
00:49:25She's already joined them.
00:49:27Look, Bridget, I've had enough of your spook talk.
00:49:29Get out, you sot,
00:49:31and don't come back into this room again.
00:49:54Where's what's-her-name?
00:49:56Nora.
00:49:58I didn't disturb her
00:50:00since I don't think this concerns her.
00:50:02No, you're right.
00:50:04Mr. Loren,
00:50:06isn't there some way
00:50:08we can get out of this house now?
00:50:10No.
00:50:12No.
00:50:14No.
00:50:16No.
00:50:18No.
00:50:20No.
00:50:21No.
00:50:23No.
00:50:25None at all.
00:50:27We could try breaking out.
00:50:29The only door to the outside
00:50:31is made of steel.
00:50:33The bars of the windows
00:50:35are set in solid stone.
00:50:37We've got to stay.
00:50:40I'm not afraid of your ghosts, Bridget.
00:50:44But I am afraid.
00:50:48When we came here a few hours ago,
00:50:49we thought we'd get $5,000.
00:50:51Now, however, we share something else.
00:50:54The death of Mrs. Loren.
00:50:57So far tonight,
00:50:59one of us was almost killed
00:51:01by a falling chandelier.
00:51:03One of us was mysteriously slugged.
00:51:06One of us has been driven
00:51:08to the brink of absolute hysteria,
00:51:10and one of us is dead.
00:51:13Were these accidents?
00:51:15Suicide?
00:51:16We must stay here for six more hours.
00:51:18Six hours?
00:51:21Six of us.
00:51:24Time enough.
00:51:26Who'll be next?
00:51:28How will it happen?
00:51:30Let me ask you a question, Doctor.
00:51:33You were the first one to see my wife there.
00:51:35Did you also see anything
00:51:37that she could have climbed up on
00:51:39and then jumped?
00:51:41No.
00:51:43Did any of them?
00:51:45There was nothing.
00:51:48How, then, did she get up there
00:51:50so high?
00:51:52Exactly, Mr. Loren.
00:51:54How?
00:51:56She couldn't have pulled herself up there.
00:51:58She couldn't have dropped from the ceiling.
00:52:00Do you think your wife killed herself?
00:52:02No.
00:52:04She was murdered
00:52:06by one of you.
00:52:08By one of you.
00:52:14Or you, Mr. Loren.
00:52:17To deliberately kill someone,
00:52:19you must have a reason.
00:52:21We were all strangers to your wife.
00:52:23Only you had a motive for murder.
00:52:26What husband hasn't at some time
00:52:28wanted to kill his wife?
00:52:30What husband hasn't had a thousand opportunities
00:52:32to do it in such a way
00:52:34so that he'd never be suspected?
00:52:35I'm not such a fool
00:52:37as to hang my wife from a ceiling by a rope.
00:52:39The fact remains that you, or one of us,
00:52:41murdered Mrs. Loren.
00:52:43And that's a matter for the police.
00:52:45So how do we get the police?
00:52:47That's my point.
00:52:49We can't until morning.
00:52:51What began as a silly party given by an eccentric
00:52:53has now involved us all in murder.
00:52:55For once, Pritchard may be right.
00:52:57If another murder's in the works,
00:52:59let's stop it now.
00:53:01Another murder?
00:53:03Why not?
00:53:06Why should even a millionaire
00:53:08want to give each of us $10,000
00:53:10to spend one night in a gloomy old house?
00:53:12To see some ghosts?
00:53:14Have a party?
00:53:16No.
00:53:18Have you finished trying me, Doctor?
00:53:20And is the verdict guilty of murder?
00:53:22Oh, this isn't getting us anywhere.
00:53:24Somebody killed Mrs. Loren, we know that.
00:53:26One of us is guilty
00:53:28and the rest of us are innocent, okay.
00:53:30Now what we have to do for the next six hours
00:53:32is protect ourselves from each other.
00:53:33Do you really think...
00:53:35I don't think anything.
00:53:37I just know that I'm going to my room
00:53:39and if anybody comes in, I'll shoot him
00:53:41or her.
00:53:43And if we all stay in our rooms, we'll be safe
00:53:45because the innocent will have no reason
00:53:47to leave his room
00:53:49and the guilty will admit his guilt
00:53:51if he or she does.
00:53:53And we all have guns.
00:53:55Then we'll all agree.
00:53:57Oh, I wish this night were over.
00:53:59Rooms?
00:54:01Guns?
00:54:03I tell you, it doesn't make any difference.
00:54:05They aren't through with us yet.
00:54:33What's the use of saying good night?
00:54:52Good night.
00:55:03Good night, Doctor.
00:55:33Good night.
00:56:03Good night.
00:56:33Good night.
00:57:03Good night.
00:57:33Nora, it's me, Lance.
00:57:40You okay?
00:57:43They've all gone to their rooms
00:57:45and locked themselves in.
00:57:47Lance, I've been thinking.
00:57:49It was so dark down there.
00:57:51Maybe it wasn't Mr. Lorne.
00:57:53It was him, all right.
00:57:55He tried to kill you and he did kill his wife.
00:57:57I don't care.
00:57:59I don't care.
00:58:01I don't care.
00:58:04How can you be so sure?
00:58:06She tried to warn me.
00:58:08Asked me to help her.
00:58:10The doc thinks he's gonna try and kill one of us.
00:58:14Now, there must be a way out of this place
00:58:16and I'm gonna find it and get the police before he does.
00:58:18I'm going with you.
00:58:20If he finds out you're alive...
00:58:22No, Nora.
00:58:24You're safer here than anyplace else.
00:58:26Now, just lock yourself in and keep quiet.
00:58:33If I find a way out, I'll come back and get you.
00:59:03I'll be right back.
00:59:33I'll be right back.
01:00:03Nora!
01:00:33No!
01:00:52No!
01:00:54No!
01:01:03Oh, no!
01:01:33No!
01:02:03No!
01:02:33No!
01:02:57An admission of guilt, Doctor?
01:02:59Certainly not.
01:03:00There's either somebody else in this house
01:03:02or one of us has left his room.
01:03:04Did you hear anything?
01:03:09Organ music?
01:03:11That, and someone walking.
01:03:15You got yours?
01:03:18Ready?
01:03:20You look downstairs and I'll look up here.
01:03:22Why not together?
01:03:24There may be only minutes, seconds left of someone's life.
01:03:26Why waste time?
01:03:30Let's go.
01:04:01Organ music playing
01:04:22It's almost over, darling.
01:04:26Every detail was perfect.
01:04:30What's happening?
01:04:43We've done it.
01:04:45A perfect crime.
01:04:47Beautiful.
01:04:49Has she killed him?
01:04:51Not yet.
01:04:53But she will.
01:04:57Get me out of this hanging harness.
01:05:00What's taking that girl so long? What time is it?
01:05:03At first I couldn't get Nora to want to protect herself with a gun.
01:05:06But after you appeared at the window, everything began to work just as we had planned.
01:05:10You were wonderful. Just the touch that finally drove her into complete hysteria.
01:05:14It'll be worth all of our planning, darling.
01:05:17Where's Nora now? What's happening?
01:05:20On her way to the cellar. So scared she'll shoot the first thing that moves.
01:05:24And Frederick?
01:05:26He's on his way to the cellar, too.
01:05:29David, are you sure none of them will suspect us?
01:05:32Of what? An hysterical girl accidentally shoots somebody?
01:05:35Who would suspect that we planned it that way, that we drove her to it?
01:05:38What about my suicide?
01:05:40Just a ghost party gag. We'll claim it was a dummy, since I'm the only one who touched you.
01:05:44And the caretakers?
01:05:46Well, they had no idea what they were really doing.
01:05:48What about Nora? She's not stupid, you know.
01:05:50Darling, believe me, everything we planned is working perfectly.
01:05:54I'm sure Frederick murdered you.
01:05:56She thinks Frederick attacked her in the cellar, not me.
01:05:58And now Nora's almost out of her mind with fear.
01:06:00The heads, the music, you're hanging.
01:06:02I tell you, when Frederick walks in there, she'll shoot him.
01:06:05It's taking too long.
01:06:07David, you ought to be there.
01:06:18When you hear the shot, come down to the cellar.
01:06:24All right.
01:07:24No. No!
01:07:54No!
01:08:24No!
01:08:55David?
01:08:59David?
01:09:24David?
01:09:54David?
01:10:25David?
01:10:33At last you've got it all.
01:10:35Everything I have.
01:10:37Even my life.
01:10:40But you're not going to live to enjoy it.
01:10:43Come with me, murderess.
01:10:45Come with me.
01:10:54No!
01:10:57No!
01:10:59No!
01:11:01No!
01:11:03No!
01:11:06No!
01:11:08No!
01:11:10No!
01:11:24No!
01:11:54No!
01:12:11Good night, Doctor.
01:12:13Good night, Annabelle.
01:12:16The crime you two planned was indeed perfect.
01:12:20Only the victim is alive and the murderers are not.
01:12:24It's a pity you didn't know when you started your game of murder...
01:12:29that I was playing, too.
01:12:37There must be some way to get in here.
01:12:39It's right along here somewhere.
01:12:44Lance!
01:12:46I've shot Mr. Lorne. He's down in the wine cellar.
01:12:49Alive?
01:12:50I don't think so.
01:13:01It's him. He's alive.
01:13:08You didn't shoot anyone, my dear.
01:13:11I loaded your gun with blanks.
01:13:14I can tell you all now...
01:13:17Trent and my wife were planning to kill me.
01:13:20They failed.
01:13:22Trent tried to throw me in the vat.
01:13:25My wife stumbled and fell.
01:13:29I'm ready for justice to decide if I'm innocent or guilty.
01:13:48Now there are nine.
01:13:51There'll be more, many more.
01:13:57They're coming for me now.
01:14:03And then they'll come for you.
01:14:06And then they'll come for you.
