Wiki.

The Thirteenth Chair is a 1929 American mystery film directed by Tod Browning. The picture is based on a 1916 play of the same name by Bayard Veiller. It stars Conrad Nagel, Leila Hyams and Margaret Wycherly.

The film was one of many released in both sound and silent versions. The initial television airing of the sound version, minus commercials, was by TCM on August 22, 2019. The sound version aired previously, with commercials, in the early 1990s on TNT.

An earlier version of the film, starring Creighton Hale, was made in 1919 by ACME/ Pathe Exchange, directed by Leonce Perret. In 1937, the film was again remade by MGM under the same title starring Elissa Landi and Dame May Whitty.
