Critical reception
The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "A secret panel in the fireplace, a stone chamber with cobwebs, and a darkly cloaked figure are among the time-honoured stratagems employed in this concoction which flirts coyly with the occult, hypnotic control and vampirism. None of these trappings disguise the fact that the material is routine, and the story loses momentum after its colourfully unconvincing Théatre de Mort opening. Still, there is some recompense in the stylish pictorial effects."[2]
