- 75The A.V. ClubKeith PhippsThe A.V. ClubKeith PhippsWhat Castle’s films lack in originality, they make up for in carnival energy and an eagerness to please.
- The unconvincing wraiths appear whether you like it or not in this good-for-a-few-laughs feature.
- 50Austin ChronicleAustin ChronicleMainly remembered for its rather soggy haunted-house plot and the Master Showman's latest gimmick, the "Illusion-O" Ghost Viewer (a strip of colored plastic not unlike 3-D glasses which enabled audiences to see the ghosts on screen, or "remove" them when cowardice got the better of them).
- It's too bad Mr. Castle, in serving up his ghosts, didn't simply have some cartoonists draw, 'em on in full view.
- 50TV Guide MagazineTV Guide MagazineGimmick or no, the film is really rather silly and not particularly scary.
