13 Ghosts
Directed by William Castle
A professor moves his family into a house containing hidden treasure and 12 ghosts of varying shapes and size - including a decapitated man, a killer chef and a flaming skeleton. All 12 spirits have been held prisoner in the house and must find an unlucky 13th ghost to free them. Will it be a member of the family? Or maybe...YOU? William Castle’s wonderfully silly spookfest featured one of his goofiest gimmicks: Illusion-O, an altered 3-D viewer that allowed audiences to amplify or opt out of seeing the spectres depending on their fear levels. Essential SHUDDER.

That was some fun for everyone. I usually don’t like old movies, but I watched this out of respect because I LOVED the remake. This one didn’t disappoint, either. Good entertainment.
so good!
Very enjoyable, silly fun.
Fun, fun, fun! Would have liked to know more about each ghost but the film emphasized the living instead. I'll probably hear the whispered "Thirteen!" in my dreams.
Deserves the to be more of attention the remake was worse in almost every tick except the set. This movie never had us bored.
