Day 25 George C Scott’s house is haunted



When his wife passes away John Russell moves into an old mansion to spend some time alone with his thoughts, and stumbles into his very own ghost story. Russell soon discovers that he is not alone, and that his unexpected houseguest has a story to tell. Part mystery, part ghost story, and a dash of paranoia mix together to make an intelligently creepy horror film.

George C Scott’s presentation of widower Russell shows a man lost in his own misery, a man unable to reconcile the tragic events of his own life, yet his drawn to uncover the truth behind the specter that haunts his house. Windows open when they should not open, a ball bounces down a stairwell without a hand to throw it, and a wheelchair lurks in the attic. Can a man seeking peace find it in the search for a decades old murder victim?
