The Galloping Ghost is a 1931 American pre-Code Mascot serial film directed by B. Reeves Eason and Benjamin H. Kline. The title is the nickname of the star, American football player Red Grange.

Plot

Red Grange is thrown off the Clay College football team in disgrace when his friend, Buddy Courtland, takes a bribe to throw the big game and Red attacks him.

Production

Grange received this starring role thanks to his business manager, and theater owner, Frank Zambrino. The serial took three weeks to film and Grange earned $4,500 overall.^[1]

Director B. Reeves Eason was reportedly fired during filming and replaced by the uncredited Benjamin H. Kline.{{citation needed|date=July 2015}}

Stunts

This serial was filmed at a time before "stuntmen did mostly everything" which meant that Grange had to do a lot of his own stunts.^[1]
