The Crimson Skull is a 1922 American silent Western mystery film that was produced by the Norman Film Manufacturing Company.[1] The six-reel film was made on location in Boley, Oklahoma[2] and was made along with The Bull-Dogger, which its release followed.[3] Local cowboys appear in the film backing up the actors and professional rodeo performer Bill Pickett.[4] It was marketed as a "Baffling Western Mystery Photo-play". The film is considered lost. Press books for the film remain in existence.
