Episode 21: A Lush Ghost Story for Those Who Fear Horror - 【The Uninvited 1944】 Ray Milland Ruth Hussey Gail Russell


Listen Later

Juniper convinced Elle to watch a ghost story in time for Halloween. Because Elle is terrified of horror, we compromised with the mostly harmless but highly entertaining 1944 film The Uninvited, which is our discussion topic in this episode. A film that is at once moody, romantic, and witty, The Uninvited stands the test of time. It’s also notable for spawning a beautiful popular song called Stella by Starlight. If you like your ghost stories without heavy terror but still with a nice dose of moody chill, you too should check out The Uninvited. Still unsure? Then listen to our thoughts first and then decide.
