Mill of the Stone Women (Italian: Il mulino delle donne di pietra) is a 1960 Italian Gothic horror film directed by Giorgio Ferroni, starring Pierre Brice and Scilla Gabel. It follows a journalist writing a story on a sculptor in 19th-century Holland who falls in love with the artist's sequestered daughter; meanwhile, a series of missing person cases seem to encircle the windmill where the artist lives and works.

The film is notable as the first Italian horror film to be shot in color.
