Group of older British kids (and one American, Frankie Avalon!) leave a boring party to chase ghosts at a supposedly haunted abandoned mansion; murders follow. There's an interesting sub-plot in this sub-par slasher--that of a young woman trying to untangle herself from an affair with a married older man--but it is wasted in this hysterical context. Released by Tigon Productions, a British arm of American International (which explains Avalon's appearance), and one in dire need of some macabre imagination. This one substitutes thrills with clichés, bright red blood, deadening teen-nobodys dotting the cast, and a depressing air of pointlessness in the wake of some shock deaths. Watchable for fans of the genre, but hardly satisfying. *1/2 from ****
