The Ghoul

Gaumont British borrowed just the vaguest outline from the 1928 source novel by Frank King. King's novel tells of a master criminal responsible for a London crime wave. The film blends it with the Egyptian mysticism of The Mummy while capitalizing on the "thunderstorm mystery" mood of The Old Dark House (1932)
