films with a seance

[faginsgirl]

Hi.



As its creeping up to halloween I was wondering about films or t.v showings which have had a seance scene in them. I can think of a few:



Seance on a wet afternoon (obviously!)

Blithe spirit

Steptoe and son (with Patricia Routledge as Madame Fontana)







Can anyone think of any more? I think there may have been one in rising damp?

London Belongs to Me.

Upstairs Downstairs - the WW1 series has Rose visit a medium to contact the ghost of Keith Barron

[Wicked Lady]

Hound of the Baskervilles with Peter Cook and Dudley Moore

[wadsy]

The Haunting1963

[Wicked Lady]

Not British, but my favourite seance scene was in Ed Wood's Night of the Ghouls.



You can see why by the photo - skeletons in wigs at the seance table. Classy!

Ministry of Fear and the David Warner segment of From Beyond the Grave.

UFO - The Cat with Ten Lives. Best episode of a great series.

[James Fox]

Not a British film, but I believe "Night of Dark Shadows" originally had a seance scene which is currently being restored--along with many other cut scenes.

[Joe Fraguela]

Spellbound from 1941 starring Derek Farr

[Santonix]

Quite a scary one in the final episode of series one of "Afterlife".

There's a fairly spooky tale included in the compendium from Amicus 'FROM BEYOND THE GRAVE' (1973).

I think my favorite is still Madame Fontana.

I seem to remember there was a seance scene in one of the cadbury`s creme egg ads too. Can anyone else remember this?
