The Unseen is a 1945 American horror mystery film directed by Lewis Allen and starring Joel McCrea.

Elizabeth's room overlooks the garden of the eerie house next door, and she finds a watch that belonged to the murdered old woman in her dressing table.

Over the next few weeks, Marian Tygarth (Isobel Elsom), a widow who owns shuttered-up 11 Crescent Drive, returns to put the house up for sale.

Elizabeth suspects someone is gaining access to the cellars and confides in David Fielding (Joel McCrea), the children's father, but he dismisses her concerns.

Ellen tells Elizabeth that Barney is the one who lets the lurking man into the house at night, on Maxine's orders.
