Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe back story given by Mrs Blankenship about the haunted house the Prescott family move into is based on the real life case of Mudhouse Mansion. Mudhouse is located in Fairfield County, Ohio, United States, just east of the city of Lancaster. It is said to have been built in the 1870s. Incidents that allegedly occurred at the property include those mentioned in the film - the murder of a slave owner's family and a mass suicide by a family who later moved into the Mansion. Mudhouse Mansion has not been occupied since the 1930s and to this day is abandoned and remains closed to the public.
Update: Mudhouse Mansion, which was in fact occupied as recently as the 1960s, was demolished on September 21, 2015. All that remains are the stories. Despite local legend, no murders or suicides were ever confirmed to have occurred there.

Featured review
DO judge a book by it's cover
As a story, there were some good ideas.. but what made the movie fall flat was the dreadful sound, the lack of suspense and the casting.
So you have the Father: who looks good for his age but can still pull off the young father look, and to also note - I thought he acted the part quite well.
Then you have the daughter: who is supposedly still in school, yet looked the same age as the father! Which I found disturbing..
Some actors must think if they keep going for younger roles all the time, it may "extend" their career or something, but what made it worse, she couldn't even act her character's age either. If you don't look the part - at least try to act it!
In short, the DVD cover is pretty misleading in relation to the film inside.
