Watching from Southern California on January 27, 2025. Many great actors in this movie. Really liked Richard Egan in "Summer Place" with Sandra Dee and Troy Donahue.
I'm watching this ghost story in the afternoon as a winter storm is literally raging outside my window with howling winds ... like in this movie ... perfect timing. Spooky!
Watching at night after a long bath, while the storm howls down my chimney. Got a warm drink, fluffy socks and a huge long cardigan. I adore atmospheric haunted house movies or old psychological thrillers. Makes me feel so cosy ☺️ About to start dinner, tonight is a great night 🌙
This and ‘A Taste of Evil’1971 Barbra Stanwyck- beautiful. Saw this mesmerizing actress in these long before I saw her in her heyday. The epitome of grace and style❤️
Ooh this is a great find! I love Barbara Michael's books and this story is a favourite...her Amelia Peabody stories would also make fabulous films! Thank you for posting!
I remember watching this when I was 14. It aired as a Tuesday Movie of the Week on ABC and was in the top 10 shows the week it aired. Television was so much better than todays' crap.
This is when old lady movie stars were making creepy horror movies like : Whatever Happened To Baby Jane, Hush, Hush Sweet Charoltte, Who Slew Auntie Roo, What's The Matter With Helen, Whatever Happened To Aunt Alice, Hollywood Horror House, Rabid Grannies, The Night Walker (another Stanwyck one), Strait-Jacket, Berserk, Burnt Offerings, The Nanny, Lady In A Cage, and a few others I don't remember 😊
Listen, thanks for the list, but I have to say that referring to these older movie stars as “old ladies” is not very nice. God willing, we all get to that age too! 🙏🏼🥰
@MaritzaAgosto-e1g We weren't discussing Barbara's best films. We were ONLY DISCUSSING the great lady stars decades after their careers when they were young... now elderly playing in horror films. That is the ONLY SUBJECT we were talking about. BETTE DAVIS HERSELF MANY TIMES SAID IN TALK SHOW INTERVIEWS when she was in her 70's : "All us 'Old Broads' had to do horror movies when we got older, including me, because those were the only scripts offered to us at our age" (and who's going to argue with the great Bette)
I saw this when it came out on ABC Movie of the Week which was shown on Tuesday nights back in 1970. This was one of the better ones along with "Duel", "Brian's Song" and "The Night Stalker"....
Well....................yes....................absolutely! Perfect! Move in to a new house (an OLD new house) and the very first thing to do is.............have a seance! Let's see what happens......................................
Oh I LOVE the book, Ammie Come Home. This takes some getting used to as I always imagined that the best Ruth character would have been Hope Lange. Barbara Stanwick just seems like she could take down any ghost. Old man Campbell should watch his step, and Sarah seemed the perfect role for Olivia Hussey. The description of Sara’s dark haired, exotic beauty called for someone like Olivia. Haha, Monday morning casting agent. Haha, I should just shut up and enjoy this version without obsessing over every little detail.
I was born around the time this was made, and my parents despised supernatural and horror movies. This would have scared the bejeepers out of me if I had gotten a peek at it as a kid.
Hard to believe big glamour stars of the thirties and forties ended their careers in tv horror. Barbara stanwyk looked pretty good for an older woman here.
I LOVED Richard Egan in 'Anything!' He was a GREAT Actor-A "BABE'-And A "REAL M-A-N!" You always get "Quality Work" from Stanwyk-(msp?)- Egan, & the other older lady actor, who used to be darren's mother on 'Bewitched.' The rest of the cast are just 'furniture.'
I watched a UA-cam video recently called. "The chilling haunting no one talks about- the Elke Sommers story.........Elke and her husband Joe Hyams bought a house in California that was haunted. They endured frightening sounds, events and eventually an actual fire in that home, they endured it for several years when they finally had enough and decided to sell the house. The Realtor brought actor Michael Anderson Jr (who is in this movie), to the house as he wanted to buy, they arrived at the front door, the realtor started to unlock the door when Michael goes, No, No, No I am not going in, this house is no good (or something like that), and he never went in......
Yes she nice slim , still has her figer , and looks great , just stared whatching it after the coment , i hope not to scearnig ,coure the conplexrd i live in , we have dark shadows floting arounf and nices sound , , we all see and here it and anoys us , i ecnore the dark shardow , and have my fan on at night bexted to my bed so i dont here it ,
I'm confused. I know that lead actress is very famous and very beautiful but if she has white hair which is what it looks like to me how can she be the appropriate age for the man who they say would be a great match for her because he appears much younger. Maybe been like now women will be making their hair white even though blonde is not really white and platinum also is not white but it's hard to get those colors and so they at the studio just did the easiest thing which was to bleach it white and then try to pretend that it was blonde and she was the appropriate age for the gentleman. Anyone have any ideas regarding this mismatch?
Look at Marylin Monroe in her last unfinished movie "Somethingś got to give"! She has had exactly the same white hair colour and she was 35 ! Stanwyck looked great when she ws 63! In the 70ties women that age seemed to be very old ladies!
I would have gone much higher, maybe 7 or 8 out of 10. The movie keeps you engaged the whole way through, and the story is easy to follow. The characters are relatable, likeable, interesting and intelligent, although they move very quickly, for the era.

Me too, he was great in A Summer Place.
Love Barbara Stanwyck
Richard Egan was personified class in “A Summer Place.”
@@phoenixtimes2 He personified poor parenting. Watch the movie again.
im now watching it....1/28/25!!! central New York. schools are closed- snow day!
I'm watching this ghost story in the afternoon as a winter storm is literally raging outside my window with howling winds ... like in this movie ... perfect timing. Spooky!
What an ambiance! Be safe and enjoy!
Yes please be safe.
Love it!!

Nita n beba, where are y'all?
No one comes down a staircase like the lady from The Big Valley. Great movie, good Acting from all. Thanks.
She owns it ❤❤
I agree! She was a great actress from Brooklyn, USA! 😊
This and ‘A Taste of Evil’1971 Barbra Stanwyck- beautiful. Saw this mesmerizing actress in these long before I saw her in her heyday. The epitome of grace and style❤️
Barbara was wonderful throughout her career❤❤❤
I saw this movie when I was a kid but I had forgotten most of it. I liked it and it's pretty good. Watching in 2025 from Michigan. 🎉
Very good😊
I love all these old movies,I have some of them on DVD, but it's a shame a lot can't be found on DVD
Am watching this movie from Zambia, Africa
Seen this movie when it came out in 1970 on tv, i was 9.
Same here! I watched it with my Granny and considered it very scary! But in retrospect it was a great time and I felt safe and secure!
Good movie , great actors , great story . Barbara Stanwyk has done it again 👏 🙌 👌 👍 💫✨️🌟⭐️😊 .
She is such a great actress. I live everything she has ever done.
Im eating hot soup on q cold day while watching this. Its cold outside and snowing brrrrrrrrrr. 😊
Barbara Stanwyck was still a beauty.
Which one is she?
Always was
@@BeeLZBeebThe one with the white or platinum hair.
thank you for this movie great
Also a nice old one...😊
Thank you for uploading it ❤❤❤
Ooh this is a great find! I love Barbara Michael's books and this story is a favourite...her Amelia Peabody stories would also make fabulous films! Thank you for posting!
Richard Egan is scaring me!
Barbara stanwick a great actress zs always a natural at it. Full of great actors we need more old classics to watch...
I love her shawl and skirt set. I had one like it in brown tweed. That style was big in the 70s!
I love my shawl and those black gloves 🧤. Canada is cold and I love it perfect for this movie
BARBARA. S. IS. So. BEAUTIFUL AND amazing. ACTRESS. I ENJOY. HER. IN. BIG. VALLEY 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Never thought she was beautiful but a great actress.
Originally telecast on October 27, 1970.
I was not born yet lol I love 💕 all the oldies especially black and white
I was just a year old back then.
watching from Perth Western Australia 😂 Jan Wed 29th 2025🎉 Awsome
Richard Egan. I brake for that man.🎯
They certainly were The best actors in the day,and movies were perfect
This movie was produced by Aaron Spelling. Notice that Barbara Stanwyck has on a different outfit in every scene that she is in.😊
I remember watching this when I was 14. It aired as a Tuesday Movie of the Week on ABC and was in the top 10 shows the week it aired. Television was so much better than todays' crap.
I've been looking for this movie for decades!
70s supernatural movies were a big deal when they came out (or maybe it was my young impressionable age). We kind of BELIEVED them lol
Yes!
I would have been sleeping with the lights on for months if I watched this as a kid! Now I just want all of La Stanwyck's clothes 👗🥻 👠
I am watching this movie in 2025 in Brooklyn, USA! 😊
I am watching this movie right now in 2025 in Vallejo, California!😊 I hope that you will have a terrific New Year.
Super film avec de merveilleux acteurs . MERCI
Barbara Stanwyck! What an amazing career and legacy 💕

Thanks for the list. I am catching up on these. They are great.

@@michaelgrant7322
I'll two Barbara Stanwyk's films - Sorry , Wrong Number and The Lady Gambles ... those were also her greatest films .
@@elbacarrilloLA213Couldn’t agree more. Very disrespectful.

No antiques were harmed in the making of this movie - Well not many
😂

Watching now love old movies ❤❤
Barbara Stanwyk was in "Roustabout " with Elvis, and Richard Egan was in "Love me Tender" with Elvis. A fun fact.
Die,Die, My Darling Tallulah Bankhead 1965. Also has a young actor Donald Sutherland in it. Great creepy movie.
What a beautiful woman and such beautiful dresses
She was 63 in 1970
I remember this as a kid.
OMG that long black dress with the fur!
pretty darned good
Doesn't everybody's nightgown, you know, the one you sleep in, have a full length zipper in the back? That would be real comfortable to sleep in.
Well....................yes....................absolutely! Perfect! Move in to a new house (an OLD new house) and the very first thing to do is.............have a seance! Let's see what happens......................................

Reimagining the characters is half the fun!!😊
Really enjoyed this film. Barbara stanwicks nightwear was absolutely beautiful. Too nice to go to bed in!
@@julieoldfield5506
She looked beautiful 😍 🤩 with every outfit in this film 🎥 🎞 🎦 🎬 📽 .
I was born around the time this was made, and my parents despised supernatural and horror movies. This would have scared the bejeepers out of me if I had gotten a peek at it as a kid.
This looks good!
Looks very much like Walton’s house

They sure moved right along!! Getting acquainted!!! Waste no time!!!

She was great in Thornbirds. (But Richard Chamberlain was greater….lol)
Great story
Good acting .
Very strange film for Barbara Stanwyck and Richard Egan to be starring in.
I watched a UA-cam video recently called. "The chilling haunting no one talks about- the Elke Sommers story.........Elke and her husband Joe Hyams bought a house in California that was haunted.

No to evil seances. Creepy! 😈👹🔥
good movie

Crazy Sarah 😮 o no she has been possessed by some thing Barbara stanwyck is a great actress😅

Huh? Is this English?
@@HernandezJan when my brother had MS his typing made no sense 😢😢😢
There are plenty houses built on top of cemeterys some people do not believe but they can make life's miserable unless been blessed
Stanwyck must have needed the $.
Why does house warming portrait look like Desilu, Jr?

What?
She went prematurely gray, actually, & got sick of having to constantly touch it up. I think she was in her fifties when she just quit. 🤷🏼♀️
⚠️ IMDb rating = 5.6/10⭐️.

Sorry movie. Making no scene!!!!🤷♀️🚪🙏
So you think it makes no sense is that right
Silly 😜😂😂😂😂
