In the quiet town of Fairwater, Frank Bannister makes a living by ridding haunted houses of their unwelcome "guest". But, as it happens, he is in collusion with the very ghosts he promises to evict. It works well until he happens upon a case which involves a diabolical spirit on a murderous rampage - and the town believes Frank is behind it. Filmed in Lyttelton, standing in as Fairwater along with a few Wellington area shots, this film was not highly received at the U.S. boxoffice, although it is very well directed with excellent special effects. The mix of humour with horror might have been the reason. A very entertaining film that is definately recommended.
