Baron Blood



This is a 1972 Italian horror film directed by Mario Bava, and the stars include Joseph Cotten, Elke Sommer and Antonio Cantafora, 

An American named Peter visits his ancestral home in Austria and is fascinated by a castle that belonged to one of his infamous ancestors, who was an evil baron that died centuries ago. The castle was turned into a tourist attraction but is sold at auction to a mysterious wealthy man. Peter and his girlfriend think it's fun to summon the ghost of the dead baron.

A beautifully made film with a true castle named Burg Kreuzenstein in Vienna, Austria. The film was made in just six weeks just in time and on a small budget. There's plenty of spooky atmosphere and fog, creepy paintings and statues, a lot of running, some jump scares and gore. Described as gothic horror, the style of the director is creating tension. The sounds of screaming from the film was used to make the "Well to Hell" hoax.

I rate this creepy ghost film a nice 6/10.
