(Learn More) Thirteen Ghosts, the 1960 William Castle haunted house horror thriller ("13 times the Thrills! 13 times the Screams! 13 times the Fun!"; "See the ghosts in ectoplasmic color"; "13 Ghosts in Illusion-O!", which required the use of a 'ghost viewer', which allowed squeamish viewers to block out the ghosts, and thus avoid a potential heart attack; "See the ghosts in ectoplasmic color"; "A ghost for every member of the family!"; "Free! Free! Free! Ghost Viewer"; "Ghost Viewer given to each patron during the chill-n-thrill engagement of 13 Ghosts at this theatre! You can't see the ghosts without a Ghost Viewer!"; "See! See! See!"; "in Illusion-O!"; "Yes, 13 times the entertainment when you use the new ghost-viewer FREE to everyone who sees the movie!"; "Written by Robb White") starring Charles Herbert, Jo Morrow, Martin Milner, Rosemary DeCamp, Donald Woods, Margaret Hamilton, and John Van Dreelen. Note that this movie (like many of William Castle's) had a gimmick where they provided you with a "ghost viewer". You could look through the red part to see the ghosts, or, if you were too scared, you could look through the blue part and then you would not be "terrified" by the ghosts! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that pressbooks were prepared prior to a movie being released. Often, changes would be made in a movie advertising campaign (billing of actors, different images, etc.), and the theaters would print up special supplements that they would send out with the pressbooks that had already been printed. These supplements are very rare, far more rare than the pressbooks themselves! Some pressbooks would have no supplements, some would have one, and some would have several. Also note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this pressbook, and of course, the winner of this auction will receive the entire single pressbook we are auctioning (plus any supplements or heralds described above)! Also note that this pressbook is complete and uncut! Given that theater owners purchased pressbooks partly in order to create their newspaper advertising, and quite frequently cut them up for that purpose, it is rare to find a pressbook that IS complete and uncut! Condition: very good to fine, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut and is in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
