Synopsis

Stephen Royds arrives at an old house, announcing his intention to buy the property, to the surprise of its sole occupant, caretaker Mrs. Parks. The house has largely been abandoned since its previous owner, Gerald Harboys, was committed to an asylum for the apparent murder of his wife, Muriel, on their wedding night. Harboys was obsessed with the physical perfection of women and, upon discovering that Muriel had had her right middle toe amputated in childhood, murdered her. Her ghost is said to still haunt the old house.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 11

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
