The Phantom of Crestwood is a 1932 murder mystery released by RKO, directed by J. Walter Ruben, and starring Ricardo Cortez and Karen Morley. Morley plays Jenny Wren, who plans to extort money from various wealthy ex-lovers, after she lures them to an estate called Crestwood. The film was based on a radio serial, and a contest was held where listeners sent in suggestions for the film's ending. The film features what one reviewer referred to as an "eye-popping" flashback technique.
