Ghost Stories is a British horror movie that premiered in the U.K. in 2017. It was limited released in the U.S. in Spring 2018. It’s set for streaming and DVD consumption on September 4, 2018.
I learned about it after I saw an article on Comicbook.com that the Ghost Stories trailer had been released. Which immediately piqued my interest because before that I was unaware there was a movie with such a name.
What’s it about?
Here’s the description Comicbook.com included in their article:
In the film, “Phillip Goodman, professor of psychology, arch-skeptic, the one-man ‘belief buster’ – has his rationality tested to the hilt when he receives a letter apparently from beyond the grave. His mentor Charles Cameron, the ‘original’ TV parapsychologist went missing fifteen years before, presumed dead and yet now he writes to Goodman saying that the pair must meet. Cameron, it seems, is still very much alive. And he needs Goodman to find a rational explanation for three stories that have shaken Cameron to his core. As Goodman investigates, he meets three haunted people, each with a tale more frightening, uncanny and inexplicable than the last.”
Here’s the short IMDB synopsis:
Arch skeptic Professor Phillip Goodman embarks upon a terror-filled quest when he stumbles across a long-lost file containing details of three cases of inexplicable ‘hauntings’.
It stars Andy Nyman, who also co-wrote and co-produced the movie, as the skeptical Professor Phillip Goodman. It also stars Martin Freeman (of films such as The Hobbit trilogies and Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy) as one of the people in the three cases. And actor Alex Lawther as Simon Rifkind, whose performance was creeping me out in the trailer.
Speaking of the trailer, I’ve posted it below. Check it out and see for yourself.
But a word of advice courtesy of the movie: Be careful what you believe in…
Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
