    Ghost of Dragstrip Hollow (1959)

    Share
    Facebook Twitter Pinterest WhatsApp Reddit Email

    The cast from the earlier Hot Rod Gang (1958) returned in this AIP production featuring a monster, a haunted house and a talking hot rod.

    After being evicted from their old clubhouse, members of a Los Angeles drag racing club move into an old deserted mansion and make it their new headquarters.

    They hold a Halloween masked ball for their grand opening and invite everyone to come dressed as their favourite monster.

    The festivities take an unexpected turn when one of the youths discovers an impostor among them: a real live monster who has been hogging all the dances with the best-looking girls.

    Clocking in at just 65 minutes, the film screened in the US as part of a double-bill with The Diary of a High School Bride.
