Curiosidades
This was originally intended to be the first in a series of films based on the Mrs. Pym novels of Nigel Morland; the author would write 22 Palmyra Pym thrillers between 1935-61.

Pifias
Mrs Pym asks for someone to pass her a flashlight when an English lady especially of her age in 1940 would call it a torch as flashlight is an American word.

Citas
Mrs Pym: Shott, there's something here smells so strong we ought to be wearing our gas masks.
Det.-Inspector Shott: Yes, the incense they used last night.
Mrs Pym: Incense me foot! I'll tell you that club is the phoniest set-up I've ever seen: Mencken's so crooked you could drop him down a well and he'd wear away the sides.

Créditos adicionales
Opening credits prologue: "The Green Valley Psychic Club is an imaginary organisation invented for the purpose of the story and without any counterpart in real life"

Preposterous but engaging

By the time this film was made so many crime and mystery films had been made that it would appear that producers were seeking even more complex and unusual plots and methods of murder to stump the cinema going public.In this case it is murder by vacuum cleaner.It is therefore rather difficult to take this film seriously.In fact Mary Clare as the female detective seems to go through this film with a smile on her face as if she is constantly wondering with amusement that she is actually getting paid to make this tosh..She is supported by a youngish Irene Handel and an impossibly young looking Nigel Patrick.This film may be rubbish but it is nevertheless extremely entertaining rubbish which does not outsmart its welcome.
