I have an odd but informative collection of videos and links on filmmaking and horror films. I hope you enjoy it.

Tonight's film is Robert Wise's, "The Haunting" and I'm sure you've seen it, and remember it, because if you saw it you would remember it.

I love this movie and I remember the first time I saw it was at 2am in an old creaking house in the woods near a lake. Yeah, not the best idea to watch this film all alone when you are housesitting for an elderly lady whose husband just died and is away for his burial.

I sat on her antique couch that was in the middle of a huge room facing her TV while behind me was a big black empty space. I kept feeling an unseen presence behind me. I knew the ghost of the old dead man was watching me, wondering why I was there…

But enough about me!

This is the perfect ghost story for the believer and the sceptic, too! You gotta see this amazing film!
