'Night Comes Too Soon' is a 1948 British horror film directed by Denis Kavanagh and starring Valentine Dyall, Anne Howard and Alec Faversham. It was based on the story 'The Haunters and the Haunted' by Edward Bulwer-Lytton.Chibnall & McFarlane p.118 It was released in the United States under the alternative title of 'The Ghost of Rashmon Hall'.
The film was made as a second feature for release on the lower half of a double bill. It was shot at a manor house near Mill Hill, part of a trend of renting country houses rather than studio space by low-budget producers after the Second World War.Chibnall & McFarlane p.118
