The Bat (1926) is a silent film based on the 1920 hit Broadway play by Mary Roberts Rinehart and Avery Hopwood, directed by Roland West and starring Jack Pickford and Louise Fazenda. The story takes place in an old mansion, where people look for hidden loot while a caped killer (nicknamed "The Bat") bumps them off. The film was rediscovered after being thought to be a lost film for many years. Remade by West as The Bat Whispers (1930) with Chester Morris and Una Merkel, and remade with Vincent Price and Agnes Moorehead as The Bat (1959).
