The 1937 remake aired on TCM yesterday

I watched the remake on TCM Friday 13th. I looked it up and saw a mention of an earlier version which I happily found this version (the entire film) on youtube. Funny to see Bela Lugosi playing Mr Wales. This was 2 yrs before 'Dracula' was released. Nice to be able to watch both and compare them. The main differences:

In this film the secretary Helen reveals immediately her connection to one of the guest. In the remake it's one of the main secrets and only comes out after another murder.

The murderer is different from the 1937 film. It turns out to be the other Helen. Sir Crosby's daughter as Mr Whales suspected.

Trivia:

There was also a silent version made in 1919.

Holmes Herbert who played Sir Roscoe Crosby in the remake also played the same role in this one.
