The Ghost Talks is a 1929 American comedy film directed by Lewis Seiler based on a Max Marcin and Edward Hammond's Broadway play.

[3][4] As described in a newspaper review,[5] heiress Miriam Holt, who is searching for some bonds that her deceased uncle had taken so that she can return the stolen property, checks into a suburban hotel.

She is assisted by private detective Franklyn Green, who learned his craft by a correspondence course and believes that he can identify criminals by the automobiles that they drive.

Of course, when Heimie Heimrath, Joe Talles, and Peter Accardi, the former criminal associates of the late uncle arrive, Franklyn is tricked into helping them.

Miriam and Franklyn go to a house, which is said to be haunted, where they believe the bonds are hidden and run into Christopher Lee and his bride Isobel.
