My favorite -- and no one will ever remember it -- is The Uninvited with Ruth Hussey (?) and Ray Milland. I believe it was made during or right after WWII when I was a kid.

There was one scene in this old haunted English house nestled on the white cliffs of Dover where the door to living room suddenly flew open and a faint mist floated in. This was all before big time special effects, and this was a black and white movie, too.

I'll never forget that scene because I was in the neighborhood theater with my mother, and we both screamed and hugged each other.

That was a great movie. Romance, mystery, chuckles, chills... very cool.

"The Uninvited" is a great ghost story - and that song "Stella by Starlight"! Are you there, Mary Meredith?

Also, "The Innocents" (with Deborah Kerr and some really creepy spooks) and "Something Wicked This Way Comes" both directed by Jack Clayton.
