The Uninvited (1944) is a supernatural horror film centered on a brother and sister who purchase an abandoned seaside home in Cornwall, England. Initially enchanted by the house, they soon encounter unexplained disturbances—chilling drafts, eerie sounds, and an unsettling presence. As they investigate, they uncover a dark history linked to the home’s former residents, particularly a young woman deeply drawn to the property. With each discovery, the mystery deepens, leading to a confrontation with the house’s spectral inhabitants. Directed by Lewis Allen and starring Ray Milland, Ruth Hussey, and Donald Crisp, the film is notable for its atmospheric tension and psychological depth. A landmark in supernatural cinema, The Uninvited helped establish the ghost story as a serious horror subgenre, blending suspense with an elegant, eerie aesthetic.
