"The Ghost of St. Michael’s" is a 1941 British comedy-thriller film, produced by Ealing Studios.
Plot
An ineffectual science teacher William Lamb (Will Hay) is hired by a school recently transferred because of World War II to the remote Dunbain Castle on the Isle of Skye, Scotland. Posing as (amongst many other things) an Old Etonian, Lamb settles down into his new surroundings and becomes acquainted with the various local Scottish traditions and legends that abound and strikes up a friendship with one of the other masters.
However, shortly after his arrival an ancient curse returns to Dunbain Castle. The sound of bagpipes signals the death of a member of staff. Two die and Lamb is initially regarded as a suspect. With his friend appointed as the new headmaster (and the next potential victim), Lamb must solve the mystery of the mysterious murders. A Nazi spy ring proves to be behind the killings, and is defeated by a British agent hidden amongst the staff.
In one of the more memorable scenes Lamb is trapped inside a secret room with the ceiling slowly descending upon him.
