Ghostwatch

Ghostwatch

Directed by Lesley Manning

A TV reporter investigates a haunted house in this classic British “documentary”, which was originally broadcast in the UK on Halloween in 1992. As experts in the BBC studio discuss supernatural phenomena, reporter Sarah Greene waits patiently for proof of a poltergeist named Pipes, whose bad behavior grows bolder throughout the evening. GHOSTWATCH freaked out gullible viewers across the UK (no warning indicated the special was scripted), leading to controversy, lawsuits and a devoted cult following who continue to search the doc for hidden glimpses of the ghoul.

A TV reporter takes her crew to investigate a haunted house in this legendary British “documentary”.

On its own, this was a bit slow but enjoyable. Then you read about its history and, wow. Actual BBC newscasters? No wonder this had everyone confused and a bit terrified. What a bold movie and piece of horror history.

Remarkably ahead of its time! It plays its cards well, while throwing in some clever twists, while escalating to an appropriately spooky ending. Imagine watching this at night on Halloween in 1992, with no comforts of the internet to demystify you and be in awe.
