Can anyone recommend some other old films that may be similar to this one? Preferably in that relative era (1930s-50s). I've already seen Rebecca; The Ghost and Mrs Muir; The Spiral Staircase; Footsteps in the Fog. I'm trying to find some more "forgotten gems" that suggest a similar kind of atmosphere.
shareThere are many haunted house/ghost movies. But I'd argue the best of the best are:
1. The Haunting (1963)
and then:
**The Uninvited (1944)
**The Others (2001)
**The Innocents (1961)
There are other noteable efforts, but I think these are the "purest".

Not spooky, but I would recommend The Enchanted Cottage.
shareThe most atmospheric is The Innocents with Deborah Kerr, based on The Turn of the Screw, by Henry James.
shareA Place of One's Own from 1945 is very similiar, just set in a different era.
"The Unseen"(1945) if you can find it. It's a mediocre follow up to "The Uninvited" with Gail Russell and directed by Lewis Allen. It's entertaining but not the caliber of The Uninvited. But it's worth a look.
And "The Night Has A Thousand Eyes" Quite an entertaining film again with Gail Russell and an outstanding performance by Edward G.Robinson.
