"The Ghoul" is a 1975 British Horror film starring Peter Cushing, Veronica Carlson and John Hurt. It tells the story of a group of upper class people in 1920s England who take part in an automobile race to Land's End, but due to accidents along the way, all end up on a rural estate owned by a tortured former priest played by Peter Cushing. Initially menaced by sadistic groundskeeper Tom (John Hurt), they eventually discover the Priest's horrific secret.

This was the third film produced by Tyburn Film Productions. It was shot on location at Pinewood Studios, Iver Heath, Buckinghamshire, England.

In the USA this film has been released as "Night Of The Ghoul" and "The Thing In The Attic". Contrary to belief in some quarters, the film is NOT in the Public Domain; the rights-holder is still Tyburn Film Productions. (Legal action has successfully been taken against BCI/Brentwood and Cheezy Flicks Entertainment Inc. for their unauthorized releases.)
