the ghost (1963)

AKA Lo spettro. The Spectre. Lo spettro de Dr. Hitchcock.
"All I can wish for is a quick death!"

Dr. John Hitchcock (Elio Jotta), is a disabled, in pain, and wants to die. His wife Margaret (Barbara Steele) is only too willing to help him on his way as she is having an affair with her husband's doctor (Peter Baldwin). She persuades her lover to help murder Dr Hitchcock for his money, and then set about finding it. Their happiness doesn't last long when it seems that Dr Hitchcock has returned to haunt the couple.

An interesting little Gothic chiller, which builds a fine atmosphere.
