The Whisperers is a 1967 British drama film directed by Bryan Forbes and starring Edith Evans.

Mrs Margaret Ross, an impoverished, elderly, eccentric woman, is living in a ground floor flat, and hears voices of whom she asks "are you there" - the whisperers of the title, in an unnamed town in northern England.

She is visited by her criminal son, who hides a package containing a large sum of money in her unused spare room.

She casually confides to a stranger, who befriends her in order to ply her with spirits, kidnap her, then rob her of the stolen money.

An agent at the National Assistance bureau traces down her husband, Archie (who deserted her decades ago).
