Adaptation by H. R. Hays, combined with the telling direction of Delbert Mann, fully captured the mood of the James story, dealing with a neurotic daughter and weak-willed son messing up the life of their widowed father. Margaret Phillips as the daughter and Henry Daniell as the father topped the standout cast, with Miss Phillips particularly good. Cheter Stratton gave a good reading as the son and Carol Goodner was fine as the American widow.|id={{ProQuest|1286075338}}}}</ref><ref>Balch, Jack (February 1950).

[It] is indeed a B-movie spin on upscale Victorian Gothic, but it’s not quite the campy fun it could’ve been. There’s a decent yarn lurking in here somewhere, though it’s smothered by remarkably bad acting, much too dark lensing and leaden pacing. Lacking the requisite thrills ‘n’ spills to please the action crowd, this bloody ghost story will be a marginal video item at best.|id={{ProQuest|1401421623}}}}</ref>
