Michael Mailer Films is in the process of exploring The Ghost Club - which was founded in 1862 in London and has been conducting paranormal investigations ever since - across a wide range of mediums, including a feature film, and we have your first look.
The original Ghost Club (read more about it here) attracted high-profile members including Charles Dickens, Arthur Conan Doyle and Harry Houdini.
The film, directed by Hank Blumenthal, finds William Forsythe in a story about a team of reality TV paranormal investigators who have yet to truly "make contact. They decide to try their luck at an abandoned mansion in the deep-south with a long history of hauntings. As the night unfolds, and the evidence begins to pile up , their skepticism turns to terror, and their initial goal of contact turns into the primal one of just making it out of this real haunted mansion alive.
