Television and home video releases are edited to simulate the effect without the need for special glasses. Choosing to look through the red filter intensified the images of the ghosts, while the blue filter "removed" them. Unlike early 3D glasses, where one eye is red and the other is cyan or blue, the Illusion-O viewer required people to look through a single color with both eyes. Audiences received viewers with red and blue cellophane filters. In the theaters most scenes were black-and-white, but scenes involving ghosts were shown in a "process" dubbed "Illusion-O." The filmed elements of the actors and the sets - everything except the ghosts - had a blue filter applied to the footage, while the ghost elements had a red filter and were superimposed over the frame. Audience members were given a choice: the "brave" ones could watch the film and see the ghosts in 3D. The special goggles are blown into smithereens by an unknown force witnessed by Elaine.Īs with several of his more famous productions, Castle used a gimmick to promote 13 Ghosts. Buck keeps the mask Benjamin used earlier to scare Buck's older sister and Elaine states that the ghosts have left for now, but will be back. The next morning, Cyrus and his family count the discovered money and decide to stay in the house. Zorba's ghost appears driving the terrified Rush under the canopy as Buck wakens and escapes. He tricks Cyrus' son, Buck, into searching for the money secretly, then attempts to kill Buck after the boy finds the cash, using the same method he used to kill Plato Zorba, a 4-poster bed which has been designed to have the canopy crush the body. The executor of Zorba's will, Benjamin Rush, knows of the hidden money and wants it for himself. Zorba leaves a set of special goggles, the only way of seeing the ghosts.
