Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This Dutch adaptation of Arnold Ridley's famous 1923 play helped cement the 'haunted transport' subgenre that peaked with films like Horror Express.
Director Karel Lamač shot this during his exile from Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia, making this ghost train oddly personal—he literally couldn't go home.
