Among the Living is a 1941 horror suspense film with Albert Dekker, Susan Hayward, and Frances Farmer.

Albert Dekker plays two twin brothers, John and Paul. Paul was suppose to have died when he was 10 years old, but actually went insane and was shut up in a secret room in his parents' mansion. The film is a mix of social drama, horror film, and suspense thriller. It appears to be the inspiration for a parody episode of The Simpsons, Treehouse of Horror VII, (The Thing and I).
