Plot

Critical reception

The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "The Murrays' old dark house is real and depressing, not just another Gothic mansion, and there is a welcome lack of overall sensationalism. As a result the occasional shock effects, especially the murder vision, carry quite an impact, and Zena Walker is all the more convincing as the confused and prescient Ginny. The script tends to waste time on such conventional elements as Ginny's attractive French rival, and leaves a few loose ends dangling at the end, but Terry Bishop maintains the supernatural atmosphere quite well and the supporting performances, notably Annabel Maule's jargon-ridden psychiatrist, register."[3]

Kine Weekly wrote: "The capsule thriller, competently acted, skilfully directed and adequately staged, intrigues and carries a modest kick. Confidently prescribed for the masses and womenfolk. ... The picture is quickly off the mark and the touch of the supernatural keeps it going until it reaches its twist climax. Zena Walker convinces as the confused and frightened Ginny, Robert Urquhart meets all demands as Bob, and Rupert Davies disarms, anyway for the most part, as the scheming, homicidal Campbell. Its supporting players, too, register. The feminine angle is shrewdly plugged, its settings are suitably varied, and the dialogue is incisive."[4]
