Product Description:
James Whale's horror-comedy classic is one of the first and best of the travelers-forced-to-spend-the-night-in-a spooky-house genre films. Driving through a dangerous rainstorm, Philip and Margaret Waverton (Raymond Massey, Gloria Stuart) and friend Penderel (Melvyn Douglas) must seek shelter at a foreboding Welsh mansion. Met by the disfigured, mute butler Morgan (Boris Karloff) and the bizarre members of the Femm family, the guests quickly realize that something is awry in the shadowy mansion. When the lights go out, the situation becomes even more ominous. Will the stranded travelers make it through the night in the old dark house'
