This is an excellent and atmospheric film in its own right; the only problem I have with it is the title, it's superfluous, the whistle doesn't exist in any form and there is very little in common with the original story.
The theme of a man staying in a small out of season seaside hotel, who finds something which was hidden and is followed by and dreams of a mysterious figure remain but the reason for his presence in the hotel, the nature of his find, the nature and behaviour of the ghost and the end result are all altered.
If you change the plot and the theme why bother retaining an irrelevant title?
