17+ hour, 4+ min ago (408+ words) A vacuum cleaner haunted by a ghost is the kind of one-liner which can draw in a festival audience looking for a little light-hearted fun to fill the time slots available between the "heavier" films which require much closer attention. A useful ghost, the debut feature of Thai filmmaker Ratchapoom Boonbunchachoke being screened in the world cinema category at the 30th International Film Festival of Kerala (IFFK), even appears so in the initial hour. Until, the film becomes something more, with strong undercurrents of Thailand's contemporary political history....

20+ hour, 39+ min ago (520+ words) Castle Rock did not fade away because it failed or because fans stopped watching. It ended for behind-the-scenes reasons. Hulu pulled the plug after two seasons despite strong reviews and loyal fans. However, the reason for this is that the show was always designed with a Season 2 ending in mind, and bigger business shifts stepped in. Still, the full story is more layered, and it explains why this eerie world stopped calling us back. From the outside, Castle Rock looked like a long-running idea waiting to grow. The town alone held endless stories. Stephen King had filled it with secrets for decades. Viewers assumed the show could keep going forever, hopping from one character to another. But inside the writers' room, the future was already mapped out. The creators had built the series as a connected set of stories, not…...

Nottingham Trent University provides funding as a member of The Conversation UK. Christmas is usually seen as a time of light, warmth, and happiness. However, in Europe there is a long tradition of people embracing the darker side by telling ghost stories during the festive season. One of the most famous Christmas stories of all, A Christmas Carol, is essentially a ghost story. Indeed, Mark Gatiss's well-received staging of the play is currently running under the name A Christmas Carol: A Ghost Story at London's Alexandra Palace Theatre. But what is the psychology behind people who enjoy hearing, reading and watching ghost stories at Christmas? One…...

1+ day, 1+ hour ago (766+ words) Her story resonated broadly because it came from someone trained in medicine and evidence-based thinking, yet still shaken by what she encountered. Wiseman didn't seek attention for the moment, but it genuinely altered her perspective on the paranormal. The experience made her admit that not all phenomena can be easily dismissed. It's one of those rare stories that bridges science and mystery. Years later, other family members admitted they had seen the same silhouette in the hallway. The consistency of the descriptions, despite never comparing notes, still unnerves her. The house has since been sold, and the new owners reported "strange pacing sounds" at night. For the Reddit community, this was considered one of the most credible shadow-figure encounters ever posted. The internet called it one of the purest forms of a visitation dream " if it even was a dream....

1+ day, 2+ hour ago (915+ words) Castle Rock immerses the audience in a town that, from the first shot, is very off-putting but at the same time very real. The neighborhood feels like everyday life, and the people and buildings feel like very old friends. And the vibe has a subtle but never-lifting heaviness. So, where was it shot? Castle Rock was mainly filmed in Orange, Massachusetts, while the interior scenes were shot at New England Studios located in Devens, Massachusetts. That realism was not a mere coincidence! The production used real locations rather than studio sets or digital backdrops, isolating the locations for their ordinary look and natural solitude. These locations not only helped the series capture the atmosphere of Maine's fictional town but also enabled it to present a mature, real-world connection to the audience. The show was supposed to take place in Maine,…...

1+ day, 11+ hour ago (324+ words) Director Jonathan Miller summarizes much of James" modus operandi with the narrator"s introduction to the 1968 adaptation of the James story: "It hints at the danger of intellectual pride and shows how a man"s reason can be overthrown when he fails to acknowledge those forces inside himself, which he simply cannot understand." With the second episode, Janisse makes her narrative film debut with The Occupant of the Room, her own adaptation of a short story by author Algernon Blackwood. The mood"s very much in keeping with the classic Whistle and I"ll Come for You " a lone man experiencing existential unease in a hotel room " but for a unique centrepiece employing a kind of animated collage, not unlike Guy Maddin"s playfully Gothic animated contributions to Woodlands Deep. Both films bring a sharp, experimental edge to the more…...

2+ day, 2+ hour ago (803+ words) The stage adaptation is now playing in London. Paranormal Activity might not seem like the most natural movie to adapt for the stage, given that the long-running horror franchise relies on its found-footage concept. Thankfully though, the producers of the new adaptation " now playing at London's Ambassadors Theatre " don't just have the audience watching footage of a pre-recorded play. Instead, they aim to bring the same vibe of the series and tell a brand-new story, rather than remaking any of the movies to date. You don't even need to be a fan of the series, but if you are, you'll spot homages, from a person creepily staring at another person sleeping to extended sequences leaving you looking at every corner of the screen stage. If you're after subtlety, Paranormal Activity isn't about to give it to you. The production loves…...
