It just can't be as much fun watching this at home without a Ghost Viewer as it would have been back in the day. When you went to the theatre, you were given a piece of plastic with two strips of colored plastic. When the ghosts appear, you can look through the red strip and see them (eek!) Or if you were just hopelessly terrified to the point where your underwear was not safe. you could look through the blue plastic and see the scene without that nasty apparitions (since the ghosts were shown in blue in an otherwise black & white film. Or was it the other way around? Sounds kind of like a William Castle epic, you may well think and indeed it was. I wonder if William Castle would be more highly regarded as a filmmaker if he hadn't gone in for the goofy gimmicks? Maybe. He did mostly lightweight drive-in horror flicks but some (like SARDONICUS) were pretty good in their own right.
