En route, she becomes haunted by a bizarre apparition that compels her toward an abandoned lakeside pavilion. Made by industrial filmmakers on a modest budget, the eerily effective b movie classic carnival of souls was intended to have the look of a bergman and the feel of a cocteau and, with its strikingly used locations and spooky organ score, it succeeds.
