Description

Put together a gloomy New England house, a dark night and four of America's legendary leading men and you have all the ingredients for the classic Ghost Story, a spellbinding motion picture based on the bestseller by Peter Straub. Co-starring Patricia Neal, Ghost Story is about the Members of the Chowder Society: Fred Astaire, Melvyn Douglas, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. and John Houseman, who get together each week to share tales of horror. Soon, however, a secret terror invades the group, and one by one, they die mysteriously because of a real life ghost story that is part of their past.

    A slow burning, creepy film which lacks the CGI and hi tech effects of more modern ones...but it still has some genuinely scary moments. The cast is superb as well - particularly the four main characters who meet to tell each other ghost stories. As a big Peter Straub fan, the film worked well for me when compared to the book. Well worth a watch!
