Spooky things going on

Warning: Spoilers
"The Haunted Castle" is a British 1897 movie by George Albert Smith. If you want to watch this, you need to pay attention to 2 things. First of all, Méliès made a film with the same title one year earlier, so make sure you get the correct one and secondly, there were obviously no colors in this very old video. There are remastered version with colors, so you have to decide which one you prefer. Anyway, this one here has moving chairs, randomly appearing people, skeletons etc, so it's a bit of a magic show. I guess the protagonist in here was not very much entertained looking at how scared he is from start to finish in this movie that runs for slightly under a minute. Then again we'd be pretty scared too I guess. All in all, an okay watch at best, but by no means worth seeing, even if you like these very old films from the early days of cinema.
