This is one of the classic ghost movies. Four people decide to stay in this haunted house to study it.
Seeing this in the video era aged over 40, this movie did not affect me. It did not create an atmosphere that drew one in. The male leader was played by an actor with no personality or soul, just mechanically reciting his lines. Scenes that should have been effective did not involve me. Obviously it takes a special touch to create such films. "The Others" (2001) had that.

 Four people monitoring an old house rumoured to be haunted.
I vividly remember a spiral staircase.
Gulp, I'm frighted just writing about it.

I think what terrified me the most is not seeing what was doing all the stuff so you can't pinpoint the source.
I find that scary.

 @Zabadak, you didn't answer my question.... what was the storyline? I think I'm going to have to keep an eye out for this one.

 I don't remember seeing this one at all. What was its storyline? Knowing that might(only might) remind me. I love a good ghost movie?
