Hollywood needs to take a lesson from this: silence and stillness is creepy, and sticking a loud audio sting into every scary scene doesn't make the movie better. Being startled is not the same thing as being scared.
Thanks so much for saying that. I think there's a lot to learn from online filmmaking & the classic horror films -- The Shining, Exorcist, etc. And thanks for watching.
@@CASmithHorror just saw your post here so thought I'd drop in a thank you. Throughly enjoyed the film, excellent and well made with good performances too. Bravo.
@@CASmithHorror the long, lingering shots of hallways and staircases are so simple but so, so effective; the tension is palpable and brutal to sit through. Even when the payoff is relatively small, your nerves are so tightly coiled that a small movement of a toy sitting on a chair is just as effective as a CGI ghostie popping out and screaming. The strategic lack of music is great too. I LOVE this sort of thing and it was done so well here. Thank you for making this!
I'm an old grandma and not sure I should be watching this, alone, with only my little chewie and my goose!? Harper is way to small to protect me. But Willow will painfully goose anyone coming to close to his mommy! So, I guess I'm going in, wish me luck!!
I saw this 4 years ago & every year I come back to rewatch it. That ending & the voice or sounds it made, have stayed with me. As a child, I had collector porcelain dolls on my headboard (bed). It's a good thing, this movie didn't come out when I was a kid, because I would've gotten rid of them.
This is proof that we don't need Hollywood big budget horror to be terrified. It takes a lot to scare me. I have yet to see a movie that makes my blood turn to ice, just like The Exorcist did 36 years ago, when I was 8. This one comes damn near close though, especially the very last scene from inside the house. I wasn't expecting that AT ALL and that sound/voice will be stuck in my head for at least a couple weeks. Freaking AMAZING job! I'm super impressed!
It begins with the people moving into a house that they move into and suddenly weird stuff begins to happen. Knocking on the walls, spooky scary and creepy things started happening. People let me tell you I don't need a voice to say Get Out! Let 0ne weird thing happen I'm out!
Alan godden your correct sometimes life will blindside side us wasn't thinking about it like that I was thinking about the fear of being in a haunted house. Thank you for the financial impact of it.
Most times burning 'Dolls' like that can do the OPPOSITE of what You intend, all Your doing is releasing the Negative Energy that has little or no where else to go...and most People are stupid enough to stand close enough to watch it slowly burn.
Agreed w @godwhatnowman- NO BURNING!!!! That’s such a common thing ppl think to do w something that’s haunted..... with objects, like dolls, ouija boards, anything, bury it. Give it back to the earth, it came from the earth give it back.... just a little tidbit bc u might be making the paranormal energy attached to the object worse
I thought I'd give a peek, ended up watching it til the end... I just couldn't turn away... I just had to see what was going to happen! That's when you know its a good thing you made here, when the audience is captured by what they see... Thumbs-up!
THANK GOD I’m not the only adult that puts off household chores if I’m scared and it’s night time! Eff that! Sad part about it is, i make my pit bull sleep in my bed. I don’t know why....he has proven that he scares easier than I do, and runs much faster than me! Bastard!
I watched this when it released and rewatched it again today. I love how everything is so subtle and "realistic". The final scare, which in any other horror movie would've been something minor, becomes extremely terrifying simply by virtue of how subdued everything else has been in comparison.
I was so invested in the characters, and that made me feel everything they felt. They seemed so real, like they could just be next door. Just about the finest acting!
This is a great movie. I love the slow build up of tension. Every time I expected a jump scare, there was something else that added to the suspense. It was a little slow but it's still a fun ride. I loved it. Thanks guys!
What a gem this movie was! Instead of relying in cheap scares, it gradually builds the tension, very subtly, until the climactic finale. The thing that mostly made me uneasy was that it was very realistic, like actual footage, albeit decently filmed. Looking forward to more gems like this from the creators.
Further proof that the more simple a horror concept is, the more effective it can turn out to be. I'm a found-footage junkie and stumbled upon this tonight, and all I have to say is bravo guys! I really wasn't expecting much, but this had more than a few moments that really freaked me out. Thank you for avoiding jump scares and instead focusing on the implications of what could be going on, and what the cause of the haunting is. While I'm still a little unclear on the whys, I loved how you left little bread crumbs throughout without explaining everything explicitly, which just sends the imagination into overdrive. Also that final scene gave me chills, and that damn doll. I've always wanted to make a film in this style myself, and your film just gives me more inspiration and hope that one doesn't need a huge budget to get the job done successfully. 4 out of 5 for me, and one of the years biggest surprises. I can only hope you guys go onto greater success because I'd love to see what else you could come up with, again, this shows so much promise and potential.
Jacob Zembower We just moved to LA to make a few more feature films. So happy we could inspire you. Good luck. Follow through & actually do it. We need more talented filmmakers!
This film expertly builds suspense and makes a door slam, guttural growl, and a painful wail so much more intense than the cheap scares so often used in Hollywood. Bravo!
Came across the movie by accident and it was pretty good. I like how it took a more realistic approach without the over exaggerated Hollywood effects and crazy unreal endings.
The man goes into the room where the doll is right and the doll is sitting in the rocking chair and now the doll is looking in one direction and then the man turned to leave the doll looks at him the creepy music begins to play with that I said that's it no more I've had enough!
This was nothing short of a breath of fresh air. UA-cam has become riddled with cliche horror movies and it is just so nice to finally see a homemade horror movie that left me wanting more by the end. Incredible job!
Very unnerving when Ricky teased Ross about him being scared about the door knob moving and then after Ross proclaimed he was just a little surprised, Ricky he got quiet then said "I was scared".
I'd love to see a "making of". Great work, guys. Just goes to show how effective a creepy movie can be without a music soundtrack to telegraph every impending scare as well as tell you what emotion to feel.
I'm surprised this hasn't been picked up and distributed for a wide release. I was also surprised by how well done this was. Not much scares me, but this was totally creepy.
I've watched this movie more than once... and it's still pretty creepy. You guys did a great job on this! Thank you for the scare I was looking for! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
On second viewing: "He said that fucking thing giggled at me" is still chilling! To the filmmakers, kudos for making an effective little haunted house flick!
Watched this again for the third time. I'm a big fan of the horror genre, but regularly disappointed by larger budget pictures. Rorschach reassures me that it's creativity that matters in film, not the money that's ploughed into it. Really good job with this. Looking forward to seeing your next long feature.
@@Instant_Nerf which would you like to see next ? Teachers that shouldn’t be teachers and deserve to be castrated/sterilized ? Or surgeons that should have their peckers turned inside out or their vagina stitched to their forearm skin with an airbag inside?? You decide and I’ll chat with Matt 🤔
That music or horn or whatever makes that sound in the beginning and the end is scarier to me than the rest of the film and I thought that was scary too, that sound though. Anyways I thought the whole thing was a great piece of work, kudos.
This scared the hell outta me. All that slow burn suspense and dread leading up to the one huge scare near the end. This is in my top 5 horror films of all time.
Vj Gifford all things considered to be a movie all I do know is it sent chills up my spine more than once basically scared the crap out of me have a blessed and wonderful day
I think some of this films strongest points are its building of tension, and not having too much of overload of things going on. It's more consistent and more realistic, I would say, than a lot of modern horror movies, there are no cheap visual effects and it's really not cheesy either. The use of sound is really powerful too, it's just the small things that can push you over the edge which means the tension was built successfully. I think this is a successful horror film, and if you're reading this comment you should watch it!! I could say so many positive things! Glad I watched.
Very well done. Loved every minute of it. For a low budget they were able to build great suspension, without it getting boring and take it to a climax worth waiting for. The acting was good too. Made it more believable. I would recommend it to others as a very good watch and would love to see what this guy could do with a few dollars behind him. Well done!
I liked how the paranormal occurrences match up with actual events from people who suffer from hauntings. I've heard so many stories similar to the things happening in this movie. Like when the neighbor called and a little girl answered, giggled and hung up, then later said they didn't live there. I've heard that story before.
Yo guys this was great! Cinematography, lighting/ambiance, character development, suspense! Well done! This was better than of the Paranormal Activity movies ... Far and away better! Amazin'!!!
Unfortunately whenever I’m reminded of the film Child’s Play (a truly awful bloody film !) I think of poor James Bulger and the two ten year olds who tortured and murdered him in cold blood - they were to later site Child’s Play as a big influence in them deciding to abduct and subsequently murder a toddler. A horrendous footnote in the Annals of despicable murders. Most definitely never to be forgotten. Cheers 🥂
This movie should be distributed on larger streaming platforms. It's a very genuine, well executed project. It feels very minimal but deep, no extra tricks or cheap scares. Congrats on the team. Have you try to contact Shudder?
@@Instant_Nerf With larger, I meant on more traditional and valuable movie platforms. I used the wrong word. This movie should be promoted on Shudder, PrimeVideo... even movie theaters.
I am a horror/thriller movie freaky fan girl, but lately I have found most Hollywood productions are not very original in their plots. Although I admit that this movies overall plot was not extremely original, the fact that it was not overdone and leaving the viewer believing the events to be probable and not completely unrealistic it gives this film the tension filled atmosphere a good thriller needs. Great watch.
Fantastic movie! Gave me the creeps. Definitely one of the scariest movies I’ve ever seen. The idea something is there rather than actually seeing anything always scares me the most.
So just throw it away? And buy another one the next day. Dont kw how many times I've heard friends say been there and done that...the house or the doll make it clear love
Why? I do. It's demons are jack asses they want to destroy you because GOD loves you and they hate GOD'S creation.just rebuke them in JESUS NAME. They are terrified of HIM.
All I can say is the final scare and scene, and the sound that was made, honestly, I feel like that sound/voice with genuinely be in my nightmares for a while, great job seriously this was amazing
How can it be amazing but yet terrifying, that's what I don't understand is when people say oh you didn't really good job on this one I love your videos, you're not supposed to love that stuff Jesus don't like you to love that stuff he just doesn't like it, I feel ashamed that I'm looking at it 😱😱🥺🥺💯
@@raylady0 shut the fuck up. Why are you even here rere you theory literally makes ZERO SENSE! JESUS DOESNT WANT US TO LOVE SCARY MOVIES NOW?! GIRL KICK YOUR PATHEITIC ASS OUTTA HERE OR BETTER YET KICK ROCKS RERE WHY YOU HERE IF YOU AINT SUPPOSED TO LOVE OR WATCH SCARY MOVIES!!! WHERE YOU READ THST AT JOB 3:16? People like you are what is DEATHLY wrong with societies religion you SCARE people away from the word. God doesn't say we should not watch SCARY movies and love the plot. Where did he say that too you fruit loop? He didn't you just on here being a FALSE PROFIT which IS in the Bible. "You will meet people who will try to make you believe their word us my word. Stay away from these people" I did you a favor and broke it down in dum dum level so you could or at least you should get what I meant. You lady are what Jesus warns us of, a false profit professing that they know more then he himself. H3 didn't say that. It's okay to like to be scared. They are not saying that they love demons and demonic entities they like the premise of a movie is nowhere near what you are saying dofus! If thus were my channel you'd blocked out here scrambling the word of God to fit your mindset. Don't like scary movies? Good don't come here. We do. It doesn't mean we LOVE DEMONS IT MEANS WE LIKE TO BE SCARED. THAT IS IT. MOVE ALING DODO
In my honest and wholehearted opinion I think this movie should win awards. That final scene in the bedroom literally made me jump and my heart went 0-100 in a split second! Bravo the acting was amazing the story was superb and the build up made this a terrifyingly cerebral horror film and I usually don't like perspective shot movies. I'm going to look for more from you now.
I was really impressed with this film, it had a slow build up that I enjoyed and I liked the acting a lot. Some parts made the hairs on my arm stand up, so that's a big thumbs up from me. I'm a sucker for scary movies and usually I find most recent paranormal movies boring or they just don't hook me. This one did though and the fact that it's left unanswered worked really well. *Spoilers* Only complaint I'd have is that you can see the doll turning its head coming a mile away. Might've been better if the character doesn't see the head move and you give the audience just a fleeting glimpse of it. All in all though a great movie to find on UA-cam. I'm going to see what your other stuff is like.
Sure, but with the doll head NOT turning might have even been disappointing and a bit confusing. It's like the doll head was a wink a a nod from the entity letting them know, yeah, you know my head's gonna turn, but what I do next is gonna be the unpredictable move. Are you sure you're ready for that? What's next, suckers? Just check and see what you think you will see. My screech will send you running for the hills when you think that in this scene a head turn is all you'll get, but a scene later will scare the begeesus out of you and have you running for the hills. The head turn is predictable and is NOTHING. Then I'll chase them all the way to their new house where the saga continues. You ain't NEVER getting rid of me! So, you see, the doll head turn in that particular scene is just a part of what is to come and is predicted. It actually makes it more scary since it is predictable. You get what all I mean here? 🤔☠️
Asa skeptic that loves killing time with horror/supernatural vids, this was fan-fucking-tastic. Well acted, not overdone, and the fact that it all took place in one limited location was just great. This should have been distro'd out to Hulu or Netflix. Super good... slow burn until it scorched. Brilliantly done.
I don't often watch films online, but I watched this through to the very end. Very well done, it wasn't cheesy with too many jumps, and was tense, good job x
Man I absolutely LOVE the little subtle sounds and visuals, it is so much more scary and believable to have little things happening instead of full body apparitions running around, loud dramatic music and the like. All I can say is Loved it, so immersive and suspenseful, definitely got a new subscriber guys.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
this film shows many directors of the genre that fear is not about seeing blood and gore. it about not knowing what there is. love this...the growl was terrifying....whatever caused it
@@labledoutcast fear stands for false evidence appearing real,, you can only fear the unknown,,once you know and understand your fears,,,you can no longer be scared of them anymore,,sure cautious and as most scary things do have real consequences,,like rollercoasters,, cus anything could go wrong there,, but spiders and shit is easy ,,just learn all about them,, conquer your fears by learning and understanding them,, fears of the supernatural,, hard to learn about that,,as it might not even exist !!! that's what makes it so scary,,the not knowing,, you can only fear the unknown !!!
Honestly I think this type of haunting would be either a demon or poltergeist or both. Cause that liquid stuff they collected from the light switch in the kitchen is often found in hauntings that are caused by demons poltergeists or both. Love this movie never gets old.
It's definitely a slow burner but the last few minutes made the build up worth it. I really enjoyed it, I actually got goosebumps from the last 10 minutes of the movie, which is very difficult to do bc I'm quite desensitized as I consume a ton of horror material daily. Good job 👍👍
Pretty good paranormal movie. Well done on a low budget. Definitely creepy. "Houses have noises." Uh..not that give intelligent answers! It's got good phycological scares - not jump scares - that amp up as it goes along. Definitely one of the better ones on UA-cam!
This is true proper horror and SCARY. None of that CGI rubbish we see today. I was at the edge of my seat. Thank u so much for uploading. I've liked and subscribed.
That puts Hollywood to shame. Great job guys. Chills from wire to wire. Hichcock wood be proud. Realism, suspense, just good old fashioned creepy. Thanks for that. Waiting for the next one.
2/2 Overall, good storyline... great camera work and acting was done extremely well for a low-budget production! And I say that with sincerity and as much respect to the movie crew and cast as possible especially considering how atrocious I've seen alot of actor/ess's doing in larger productions than this one so kudos to you guys! It did not disappoint from its self-described story plot and yet the effects were also really good! You guys did a really good job creating a really good movie for audiences to enjoy from home here with this one! Thanks guys! But is there a sequel to this? Thanks guys! 🙂
I must have watched over a hundred short horror films on UA-cam this year, and I have to say this is absolutely one of the best. Acting and story development are head and shoulders above a lot of what I have watched. It's genuinely creepy.
Please do a sequel, the ending really left that door open, this definitely is one of the best FF movies around, simple yet unsettling, would love to see a follow up if it is ever in the works.
Despite me never having kids before, soon as I saw the marks on the kid I wanted to fly into the room and attack whatever did it like a vicious, rabid hellhound and rip it apart, like a dog. And seeing the face after only made it worse for me. I wanted to challenge it a just for a chance to rip it to shreds.
This video was scary AF!! Felt so sorry for the mum and her daughter. I was so frightened that creepy Patrick would reappear like in the film Annabelle Creation 😬😬 best paranormal film I have watched for a long time!!
Not the scariest movie, but very well done! I enjoy not having a cheesy jump scare, cat yowling, or music zinger. I loved that it took its time setting up your “storyline”, and acting was better than most B (and some A) movies.
I'm a big fan of horror/scary films. I remember when I became a fan, at the age of 4 I remember going to the movies to see Edward scissor hands and Misery. I'll say there has only been a handful of movies that scared, spooked or creeped me out as an adult. The Strangers, The Autopsy of Jane Doe, Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum, Dabbe: The Possession and now RORSCHACH. What made this film so creepy and unsettling to me was how subtle everything was. Nothing over the top or forced.
10/10 - Love horror stories, but they are often crap & not scary; this one however gave me chills, well acted to a point & scripted well. For a low budget horror, this is one of the best & the writer/director has real genuine talent & I eagerly await his next movie. The term less is more is true & utilized perfectly in this film.
The part that managed to scare me the most was at 52:00 when one of the investigators asks "Who's there?" Because right afterwards, as they walk down the stairs, the reflection of the mic creeps into the silhouette of the doorframe and I thought for certain it was a head peering around the corner from the kitchen. The head of something so tall, it had to stoop to look through. Scared the shit out of me, haha.
Lol. That's exactly what a good horror does. It gets you jumping at shadows. It doesn't need to show you anything, because with a good enough build up and suspense, you'll see things yourself. Lol
You remained in that house! Black people would have said BYE! I speak from hands on experience. Watch the Charlie Chan Movies with Birmingham Brown: "Great gouga mouga, feet don't fail me now!"
Let me tell you something Zoey. At 17 years old I received my draft notice to report for my physical two weeks after my 18th birthday. Since I had already graduated high school at 15 years old I convinced me parents to sign me into the US Navy. In my 34 years of service my family especially my children (I have 7 boys and 1 girl), I have seen many strange things. Living in a prepaid villa overseas with children that are attending a foreign school is not easy. But whenever strange unexplainable events that I and my family refuse to hang around for an explanation, my family and I beat Gone With The Wind in speed leaving that villa! As a child living with military parents, I have always since the Cuban Missile Crisis kept a Go (Bugout) Bag at the ready. Life is way more valuable than school attendance or personal belongings.
I enjoyed this. It was a slow burn but was believable, their reactions were how you would behave in that situation. I also think if spirits/ghosts were a real thing they'd present themselves in this way, just small things they do would puncture our domestic banality, it wouldn't be as showy as Hollywood movies pretend it is. Very good.
I have watched this several times over the last few years. It is one of my favorites! I appreciate that there is no music too. That helps to make it more realistic. Love the characters. I feel for Jamy and her daughter. This would be a horrible situation to be in.
I think they did really well with this.I have a true story that occurred and if I was ever to have it represented in film...they would be able to capture the true terror and genuine traumatic fear that actually occurred.They would be able to create a believable,thought provoking, infrasonic stimulating film, that would honor the actual events that I experienced in an old house that was built in 1856 in Hannibal Missouri back in 1998-1999 and to this day.
Interesting film. The acting felt very natural and realistic, which is one of it's strongest points. The atmosphere was also well done. I look forward to your future endeavors.
I saw the titles of those books on the shelf, that tells me half of everything. Question is, what exactly is that mom into. Did you hear the mom they explain what the doll is. Why the hell would you let your daughter keep a doll like that? Who the hell needs a Chucky doll in their house.
I loved it, this is how a real haunting looks like and it was portrayed awesomely. I was so invested in the characters and I felt their desperation because they had nowhere else to go. It was an awesome movie and thanks for sharing it here
Wow. I'm a long time horror fan that has become utterly bored with both paranormal and found footage tropes but this was AMAZING. The lack of cheap jump scares was SO refreshing. You have made "creepy" an art form with this one!
This is the first time I'm watching this so I'm sharing some good food and drinks with you🍸🍻🍺🍷🍹🍖🍝🍜🍰🍟🍔🍕🍤🍣🍩🍪🍭🍫🍬🍦🍨. Enjoy it and Happy Father's Day to all the great dads out there.
You did a VERY good job I thought. I'm 45 and jaded having watched A LOT of horror movies in my life (some favorite directors: Dario Argento, Alejandro Jodorowsky, David Lynch to name a few) while this was in a somewhat different vein, you did a wonderful job with character development and putting your viewer in that "suspension of disbelief mode" with hardly any budget... So, imo brilliant work! I hope to see more of your films!!!
Excellent film. I love the build up of unease and the suspense. Perfect little film to turn the lights off and enjoy the creepy feeling you get. I am a huge horror fan and this movie gave me what nothing out right now could, a genuine kick in the gut! I loved it! Thank you for sharing it with us. I look forward to seeing more of your work!
I wasn’t expecting much from this, I thought it was just another B-rated UA-cam film…but damn. This was so simple, yet so effective. It definitely kept my attention and the acting wasn’t bad at all. I very much enjoyed this! Thumbs up 👍
The noise the entity makes at the end literally gave me goosebump. Upon hearing it I pulled up my feet that were dangling off the side of my bed! I haven't done that since I was a little girl. As someone who watches at least one or two horror movies a day it's extremely rare that I find a movie that can scare/unnerve me.
Watch "The Atticus Institute" if you haven't seen it already. I am the same as you, 99% of horror films are laughable but that movie made me curl up and hide under my sheets.
I had to go back and watch the last scene where they ran out of the house...it even had me flipping on lights and holding my bible. I love scary movie's but this one I won't watch again, just because it felt so real. VERY GOOD! JOB WELL DONE, ESPECIALLY WITH THE SOUNDBOARD
stephanie holey you hold your bible when scary movies are on 😂 are you joking? You need Jesus to protect you from fiction. You don’t need to watch stuff like that if it gets you scared like all that. It’s fake
Truly terrifying. I'm not easily scared, most new horror does little but make me jump, but this little gem made me really uneasy . Which is great! A slow start but so worth it. No distracting music, or gore, but corner of the eye moments and areas of silence which my imagination filled in for me. I was unnerved to the pit of my stomach, and that is what gives me a scare. Haven't felt that for a while, that 70's folk horror, Ghostwatch , Twin Peaks Bob moment. Jimmies were indeed rustled. Great natural acting no chewing the scenery, didn't even notice the budget. Brilliantly Will definitely recommend to anyone who enjoys nightmares.
Everything you said about this film is exactly why I also loved it! I, also, and NOT easily scared, having watched The Exorcist when I was 10 (a very long time ago now), nothing much scares me but this one? Yeap, brilliant and scary!
Just watched your film and loved it!!! It had the creepy , scary make you turn all the lights on in your house vibe! I'll definitely be waiting for you to make more movies like this . Great cast , awesome short film. Loved it!!
A wonderful "ghost" haunted our house when I was a kid, turns out she was the mother of the old man who sold it to my dad. She smiled a lot, didn't like opening doors, just came right through them. She often wore an apron and liked the kitchen. And she was chubby. This was 1974, she died in the early 1900s.
People don't become ghosts. You're either lying, demented, or your family was being fooled by a demon. Yes, there are definitely demons (fallen angels).
Leo Mintzera no I believe you I've seen the legs of a ghost running up the steps didn't make no noise and it was fast!! Athletic in the Olympics fast and before that me and my friends saw a I guess if you want to call it what everyone else calls it alien ship but just a bright ass light in the day thought it was a plane I was 12 but it stayed there for hours then I told the rest of my boys I was playing football with they said the same it's an airplane I explained we sat down and just watched it from my friends backyard you can see this big building and it was on the left hand side of the building looked close to the building but far at the same time idk weird left came back on the right hand side then to the top back to the left then back to the right hand side of the building then took of so fast I've never seen nothing in my life seen something move that fast I can imitate the speed with a laser that's how fast never saw anything else the only strange things I've ever seen so I believe now and I don't scare easy for shit cause we're all going to die and see these things when we die anyways hope not hope I make it to heaven cause god is real bash me all you want make smart I'm fucking cool remarks all you want shit is real and I have witnesses the ghost running I got into a fight with my cuz that night over a girl he went upstairs I was sleeping downstairs went up to say sorry asked his sis if it was her that ran up the steps but she had bright yellow pjays on so it wasn't her and she not that fast my cuz is chubby so I know it wasn't him wasn't the dogs cause it was human legs I saw a waist to my cuz said yeah that's my dead uncle he probably got mad at me or was just checking on things but doubt that never know till you die
I've now watched this twice and I'm pissed off I didn't know about it sooner - best kept UA-cam gem?? Seriously this was flawless. It deserves so much more attention.
I was so waiting for the doll to be back in it's chair after it had been thrown away. Other than that this was excellent. Good acting, good suspence and the ending scene gave me chills 😱 great movie!
Haven’t even finished it yet but just had to jump on and say how impressed I am with this. I watch a ton of these on You Tube and this is definitely a stand out. N shout out to the actors, amazing job!
A really solid piece of work. No, it's not 'the scariest film online' - but it does a great job with building atmosphere that stays with you. Good performances, good script and pretty tense. Hope you do more!
Hollywood needs to take a lesson from this: silence and stillness is creepy, and sticking a loud audio sting into every scary scene doesn't make the movie better. Being startled is not the same thing as being scared.
Thanks so much for saying that. I think there's a lot to learn from online filmmaking & the classic horror films -- The Shining, Exorcist, etc. And thanks for watching.
The things you don’t see make it scary.
@@CASmithHorror just saw your post here so thought I'd drop in a thank you. Throughly enjoyed the film, excellent and well made with good performances too. Bravo.
That's for dam sure!! 👍
@@CASmithHorror the long, lingering shots of hallways and staircases are so simple but so, so effective; the tension is palpable and brutal to sit through. Even when the payoff is relatively small, your nerves are so tightly coiled that a small movement of a toy sitting on a chair is just as effective as a CGI ghostie popping out and screaming. The strategic lack of music is great too. I LOVE this sort of thing and it was done so well here. Thank you for making this!
I'm an old grandma and not sure I should be watching this, alone, with only my little chewie and my goose!? Harper is way to small to protect me. But Willow will painfully goose anyone coming to close to his mommy! So, I guess I'm going in, wish me luck!!
My grandma's got a 357 snub nose. And she's 77. It's never too late..
🙂😉😊
@@spidykat7188 Did you get that last comment of mine? Have you noticed, it's not there anymore? Did Google punish me for that nine comment? ; )
@@debbieprokop9401 no ma'am I wouldn't see why they would. I've mentioned the 357 snub nose. I don't know
Yes it's still on there I see it on my phone anyway on my end
This was really fun to watch! I kept expecting the doll to show back up, I'm glad it didn't 😂
I saw this 4 years ago & every year I come back to rewatch it. That ending & the voice or sounds it made, have stayed with me. As a child, I had collector porcelain dolls on my headboard (bed). It's a good thing, this movie didn't come out when I was a kid, because I would've gotten rid of them.
Thanx for the spoiler.
I'm in my late 60's and there was never a time in my life that clowns and dolls haven't scared me deeply. That doll made my hair stand on end.
This is proof that we don't need Hollywood big budget horror to be terrified. It takes a lot to scare me. I have yet to see a movie that makes my blood turn to ice, just like The Exorcist did 36 years ago, when I was 8. This one comes damn near close though, especially the very last scene from inside the house. I wasn't expecting that AT ALL and that sound/voice will be stuck in my head for at least a couple weeks. Freaking AMAZING job! I'm super impressed!

@williammccann3411 no it didn't. Its a found footage. It's a film. The actors are on Twiter ffs
@@williammccann3411no. It’d a movie. Similar to found footage movies you see. Please kid.
Original scares me more. When it’s manufactured through Hollywood it doesn’t it’s just funny.
This is what true horror is like. Subtle yet terrifying. Great job guys and I hope there is a part 2!
Thank you, Laken! If all goes well, we'll be shooting the spiritual sequel soon.
hi @@CASmithHorror any new of this? its a amazing film
@@CASmithHorror where is it?
@@my-chemical-romance the doll got them.
@@CASmithHorrorwe need it right nowww
That doll would have been salted and burned faster than you can say "Winchester Brothers".😂😂
😉😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😄😄😄😄😄😘😂!
It begins with the people moving into a house that they move into and suddenly weird stuff begins to happen. Knocking on the walls, spooky scary and creepy things started happening. People let me tell you I don't need a voice to say Get Out! Let 0ne weird thing happen I'm out!
Alan godden your correct sometimes life will blindside side us wasn't thinking about it like that I was thinking about the fear of being in a haunted house. Thank you for the financial impact of it.
Most times burning 'Dolls' like that can do the OPPOSITE of what You intend, all Your doing is releasing the Negative Energy that has little or no where else to go...and most People are stupid enough to stand close enough to watch it slowly burn.
Agreed w @godwhatnowman- NO BURNING!!!! That’s such a common thing ppl think to do w something that’s haunted..... with objects, like dolls, ouija boards, anything, bury it. Give it back to the earth, it came from the earth give it back.... just a little tidbit bc u might be making the paranormal energy attached to the object worse
I thought I'd give a peek, ended up watching it til the end... I just couldn't turn away... I just had to see what was going to happen! That's when you know its a good thing you made here, when the audience is captured by what they see... Thumbs-up!
nvm
@@jeronmccormick2608 nvm what?
I've been watching it for a very long time, multiple times. Watching it now in Dec 2021
Me too lol
Its how the devil will induce the mind virus during his tribulation upon the earth..( he comes first) before the true Christ returns!!!
Proof that good, engaging horror doesn't have to jump out and slap you. This was creepy, well done!
Got some laundry to do... in the basement, Yeah that shit is gonna have to wait until daytime.
Mike van buren 😂 Thanks for watching, Mike!
Your very welcome, Thanks for the response! Watching your 3 other short films now. You've made a new fan and subscriber.
Mike van buren 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😉😉❤💣👍...that was HILARIOUS as hell!!!!.. thanks babe....I needed that laugh SOOOOOOO MUCH!!!
THANK GOD I’m not the only adult that puts off household chores if I’m scared and it’s night time! Eff that! Sad part about it is, i make my pit bull sleep in my bed. I don’t know why....he has proven that he scares easier than I do, and runs much faster than me! Bastard!
Mike van buren LMAO
I watched this when it released and rewatched it again today. I love how everything is so subtle and "realistic". The final scare, which in any other horror movie would've been something minor, becomes extremely terrifying simply by virtue of how subdued everything else has been in comparison.
'realistic' is exactly right
Yes, that one final scene just about brought me up outta my chair. Seriously. 😵
What is that thing anyway? Demon? What?
The horrible face in the mirror?@@intermilan9731
What final scare is that?
I was so invested in the characters, and that made me feel everything they felt. They seemed so real, like they could just be next door. Just about the finest acting!
This is a great movie. I love the slow build up of tension. Every time I expected a jump scare, there was something else that added to the suspense. It was a little slow but it's still a fun ride. I loved it. Thanks guys!
Only "a little slow"? I would say _sclerotic_ is a better description.
A build up to what though? Literally nothing?
What a gem this movie was! Instead of relying in cheap scares, it gradually builds the tension, very subtly, until the climactic finale. The thing that mostly made me uneasy was that it was very realistic, like actual footage, albeit decently filmed. Looking forward to more gems like this from the creators.
Thank you so much for watching & for the kind words. That's exactly what we were trying to achieve. Glad it worked for you.
@@CASmithHorror Thank you for sharing this movie with us!!!
When is someone gonna make a movie about a nice ghost that leads a family to a huge treasure?
Robert Elledge hilarious
Casper has already been made lol....
Hehehe you wish!
Sounds like you got the ending figured out now you just need a story
Caspar the friendly ghost?
Further proof that the more simple a horror concept is, the more effective it can turn out to be. I'm a found-footage junkie and stumbled upon this tonight, and all I have to say is bravo guys! I really wasn't expecting much, but this had more than a few moments that really freaked me out. Thank you for avoiding jump scares and instead focusing on the implications of what could be going on, and what the cause of the haunting is. While I'm still a little unclear on the whys, I loved how you left little bread crumbs throughout without explaining everything explicitly, which just sends the imagination into overdrive. Also that final scene gave me chills, and that damn doll. I've always wanted to make a film in this style myself, and your film just gives me more inspiration and hope that one doesn't need a huge budget to get the job done successfully. 4 out of 5 for me, and one of the years biggest surprises. I can only hope you guys go onto greater success because I'd love to see what else you could come up with, again, this shows so much promise and potential.
Jacob Zembower We just moved to LA to make a few more feature films. So happy we could inspire you. Good luck. Follow through & actually do it. We need more talented filmmakers!
This film expertly builds suspense and makes a door slam, guttural growl, and a painful wail so much more intense than the cheap scares so often used in Hollywood. Bravo!
Came across the movie by accident and it was pretty good. I like how it took a more realistic approach without the over exaggerated Hollywood effects and crazy unreal endings.
The man goes into the room where the doll is right and the doll is sitting in the rocking chair and now the doll is looking in one direction and then the man turned to leave the doll looks at him the creepy music begins to play with that I said that's it no more I've had enough!
Yup!! It was very well made.👍
Same here. It was a good way to spend an hour or so just before bedtime. Lucky I never have nightmares.
This was nothing short of a breath of fresh air. UA-cam has become riddled with cliche horror movies and it is just so nice to finally see a homemade horror movie that left me wanting more by the end.
Incredible job!
Very unnerving when Ricky teased Ross about him being scared about the door knob moving and then after Ross proclaimed he was just a little surprised, Ricky he got quiet then said "I was scared".
If you hate ADs, then fast forward to the end of the movie, then click on the restart arrow and boom, no more ADs.
I'd love to see a "making of". Great work, guys. Just goes to show how effective a creepy movie can be without a music soundtrack to telegraph every impending scare as well as tell you what emotion to feel.
It would look just like this...
I'm surprised this hasn't been picked up and distributed for a wide release. I was also surprised by how well done this was. Not much scares me, but this was totally creepy.
Joseph Hamer same here, very creepy
over two million views is pretty good lol...
ikwym though...............
This would be a B-movie in Hollywood. But not bad.
@@micwilliams7743 I love that it's NOT Hollywood, although Hollywood is creepy enough itself!
I've watched this movie more than once... and it's still pretty creepy. You guys did a great job on this! Thank you for the scare I was looking for! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
On second viewing: "He said that fucking thing giggled at me" is still chilling! To the filmmakers, kudos for making an effective little haunted house flick!
That was hilarious. He was like "Nope" and gtfo. That would be me in that situation
yeah that part was trippy! That guy ran down those stairs!
For him to say "that thing" speaks of an object...so what did he SEE ??!!
@@jasonjaxxson the doll !
Watched this again for the third time. I'm a big fan of the horror genre, but regularly disappointed by larger budget pictures. Rorschach reassures me that it's creativity that matters in film, not the money that's ploughed into it. Really good job with this. Looking forward to seeing your next long feature.
I completely agree. Most big budget horror films are anything but scary. If this movie was released in theaters it would be a hit.
Money helps more than it doesn’t if used properly
@@JahGuarrr ya but this movie and few other rare ones show you don’t NEED a big budget for a well done movie!
@@boycottdisneyoruhatekids can you make the other movies ? I honestly liked this one and would like to see others too.
@@Instant_Nerf which would you like to see next ? Teachers that shouldn’t be teachers and deserve to be castrated/sterilized ? Or surgeons that should have their peckers turned inside out or their vagina stitched to their forearm skin with an airbag inside?? You decide and I’ll chat with Matt 🤔
That music or horn or whatever makes that sound in the beginning and the end is scarier to me than the rest of the film and I thought that was scary too, that sound though. Anyways I thought the whole thing was a great piece of work, kudos.
Yea and the funny part that all the filming was real, and the footage was taken and produced and edited, besides the music this is real 😂✌️
thanks ill have to go back and listen for the music 🎶
This scared the hell outta me. All that slow burn suspense and dread leading up to the one huge scare near the end. This is in my top 5 horror films of all time.
Havent seen many horror movies?
Seen plenty.
Jump scares and Gore aren't horror.
THIS is; suspense, dread, slow-burn horror.
I actually agree @@Bedroom_Studios
I've watched so many of these movies and this one really creeped me out. It deserves a lot more recognition. Keep up the good work.
Vj Gifford all things considered to be a movie all I do know is it sent chills up my spine more than once basically scared the crap out of me have a blessed and wonderful day
So good too watch a movie that doesn't use blood and gore to try to scare which is soooo boring. 10 out of 10
English Rose That's why I liked The Strangers, ooohh my word!
I totally agree! I love this movie! 15 out of 10!!
English Rose *to, not too there. Come onnn, it's.elementary! Smdh
@@nomadyesmad6773 that's based on actual events a true story
This is by far the most scariest and realistic ghost story movie I’ve ever seen. Less is certainly more!
And less is all they have here.
Very boring movie.
That just says you haven't seen many scary movies.
😂
I think some of this films strongest points are its building of tension, and not having too much of overload of things going on. It's more consistent and more realistic, I would say, than a lot of modern horror movies, there are no cheap visual effects and it's really not cheesy either. The use of sound is really powerful too, it's just the small things that can push you over the edge which means the tension was built successfully. I think this is a successful horror film, and if you're reading this comment you should watch it!! I could say so many positive things! Glad I watched.
Your in;put intrigues me, what else can you say..........
@@humbleservant2313 no you are. This is the best movie ever. You modern beach.* why are You here to complain. Go watch your silly little live island .
Very well done.
Loved every minute of it. For a low budget they were able to build great suspension, without it getting boring and take it to a climax worth waiting for.
The acting was good too. Made it more believable.
I would recommend it to others as a very good watch and would love to see what this guy could do with a few dollars behind him. Well done!
I liked how the paranormal occurrences match up with actual events from people who suffer from hauntings. I've heard so many stories similar to the things happening in this movie. Like when the neighbor called and a little girl answered, giggled and hung up, then later said they didn't live there. I've heard that story before.
Yo guys this was great! Cinematography, lighting/ambiance, character development, suspense! Well done! This was better than of the Paranormal Activity movies ... Far and away better! Amazin'!!!
Did anyone catch one of the newspaper headlines that said "childs play.." Nice foreshadowing!! Dang, Chucky and Patrick!
Unfortunately whenever I’m reminded of the film Child’s Play (a truly awful bloody film !) I think of poor James Bulger and the two ten year olds who tortured and murdered him in cold blood - they were to later site Child’s Play as a big influence in them deciding to abduct and subsequently murder a toddler. A horrendous footnote in the Annals of despicable murders. Most definitely never to be forgotten. Cheers 🥂
Wasnt foreshadowing at all. Learn a new word ok?
It's called an easter egg or homage to another concept.

@@fannyboni472 1:10:00 or so
This movie should be distributed on larger streaming platforms. It's a very genuine, well executed project. It feels very minimal but deep, no extra tricks or cheap scares. Congrats on the team.
Have you try to contact Shudder?
Larger ? This is the largest . It’s just not being put into peoples feeds.. share it
@@Instant_Nerf With larger, I meant on more traditional and valuable movie platforms. I used the wrong word. This movie should be promoted on Shudder, PrimeVideo... even movie theaters.
This is easily the best documentary-style presentation of a "real" haunting I've ever seen. It's just SO well-done and paced brilliantly.
I am a horror/thriller movie freaky fan girl, but lately I have found most Hollywood productions are not very original in their plots. Although I admit that this movies overall plot was not extremely original, the fact that it was not overdone and leaving the viewer believing the events to be probable and not completely unrealistic it gives this film the tension filled atmosphere a good thriller needs. Great watch.
Fantastic movie! Gave me the creeps. Definitely one of the scariest movies I’ve ever seen. The idea something is there rather than actually seeing anything always scares me the most.
not scary at all, I farted during the whole session and that was a long time hahahaha ...

When are people ever going to learn. If buy an old house and find a doll in it, don't keep it!
Kathy B facts
Kathy B unless it’s worth money then you sell it to some rich asshole who likes haunted creepy ass dolls
So just throw it away? And buy another one the next day. Dont kw how many times I've heard friends say been there and done that...the house or the doll make it clear love
Why? I do. It's demons are jack asses they want to destroy you because GOD loves you and they hate GOD'S creation.just rebuke them in JESUS NAME. They are terrified of HIM.
no i would keep it but with the right procautions.in a cage,il send my girfriend to play with it and expirementing from distance...
All I can say is the final scare and scene, and the sound that was made, honestly, I feel like that sound/voice with genuinely be in my nightmares for a while, great job seriously this was amazing
How can it be amazing but yet terrifying, that's what I don't understand is when people say oh you didn't really good job on this one I love your videos, you're not supposed to love that stuff Jesus don't like you to love that stuff he just doesn't like it, I feel ashamed that I'm looking at it 😱😱🥺🥺💯
@@raylady0 shut the fuck up. Why are you even here rere you theory literally makes ZERO SENSE! JESUS DOESNT WANT US TO LOVE SCARY MOVIES NOW?! GIRL KICK YOUR PATHEITIC ASS OUTTA HERE OR BETTER YET KICK ROCKS RERE WHY YOU HERE IF YOU AINT SUPPOSED TO LOVE OR WATCH SCARY MOVIES!!! WHERE YOU READ THST AT JOB 3:16? People like you are what is DEATHLY wrong with societies religion you SCARE people away from the word. God doesn't say we should not watch SCARY movies and love the plot. Where did he say that too you fruit loop? He didn't you just on here being a FALSE PROFIT which IS in the Bible. "You will meet people who will try to make you believe their word us my word. Stay away from these people" I did you a favor and broke it down in dum dum level so you could or at least you should get what I meant. You lady are what Jesus warns us of, a false profit professing that they know more then he himself. H3 didn't say that. It's okay to like to be scared. They are not saying that they love demons and demonic entities they like the premise of a movie is nowhere near what you are saying dofus! If thus were my channel you'd blocked out here scrambling the word of God to fit your mindset. Don't like scary movies? Good don't come here. We do. It doesn't mean we LOVE DEMONS IT MEANS WE LIKE TO BE SCARED. THAT IS IT. MOVE ALING DODO
@@raylady0 What!? Jesus was the one who recommended this film to me. I can't believe he tricked me like that.... totally gonna unfriendly him now
Really great last scene and sound though I agree. Great movie!
@@raylady0 maybe learn how to write sentences properly.
In my honest and wholehearted opinion I think this movie should win awards. That final scene in the bedroom literally made me jump and my heart went 0-100 in a split second! Bravo the acting was amazing the story was superb and the build up made this a terrifyingly cerebral horror film and I usually don't like perspective shot movies. I'm going to look for more from you now.
I was really impressed with this film, it had a slow build up that I enjoyed and I liked the acting a lot. Some parts made the hairs on my arm stand up, so that's a big thumbs up from me. I'm a sucker for scary movies and usually I find most recent paranormal movies boring or they just don't hook me. This one did though and the fact that it's left unanswered worked really well.
*Spoilers*
Only complaint I'd have is that you can see the doll turning its head coming a mile away. Might've been better if the character doesn't see the head move and you give the audience just a fleeting glimpse of it. All in all though a great movie to find on UA-cam. I'm going to see what your other stuff is like.
Sure, but with the doll head NOT turning might have even been disappointing and a bit confusing. It's like the doll head was a wink a a nod from the entity letting them know, yeah, you know my head's gonna turn, but what I do next is gonna be the unpredictable move. Are you sure you're ready for that? What's next, suckers?
Just check and see what you think you will see. My screech will send you running for the hills when you think that in this scene a head turn is all you'll get, but a scene later will scare the begeesus out of you and have you running for the hills. The head turn is predictable and is NOTHING.
Then I'll chase them all the way to their new house where the saga continues. You ain't NEVER getting rid of me!
So, you see, the doll head turn in that particular scene is just a part of what is to come and is predicted. It actually makes it more scary since it is predictable. You get what all I mean here? 🤔☠️
Yes
Asa skeptic that loves killing time with horror/supernatural vids, this was fan-fucking-tastic. Well acted, not overdone, and the fact that it all took place in one limited location was just great. This should have been distro'd out to Hulu or Netflix. Super good... slow burn until it scorched. Brilliantly done.
I have watched this many times and it still scares the hell out of me. They did a great job on this.
I really liked this! Suspense, and atmosphere, and no jump scares or Hollywood horror tropes. Very good and I hope you guys make a sequel.
I don't often watch films online, but I watched this through to the very end. Very well done, it wasn't cheesy with too many jumps, and was tense, good job x
This was beyond brilliant! Way, better than any of the 'paranormal activity' movies.
Wow. Thank you! A huge compliment since I love the original Paranormal Activity.
xisobelx373 , with each of the paranormal activity movies that were made, the sillier they got. well, I thought so.
I agree. This was way better than the "Parsnormal Activity" films.
Man I absolutely LOVE the little subtle sounds and visuals, it is so much more scary and believable to have little things happening instead of full body apparitions running around, loud dramatic music and the like. All I can say is Loved it, so immersive and suspenseful, definitely got a new subscriber guys.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Absolutely agree!!! The music they used, the camera work, that fucking ugly ass doll!🤣 Great flick!
Extremely well done, they didn't fall into the trap of showing too much or getting too extra, it was very creepy. Great job.
Honestly I think this type of haunting would be either a demon or poltergeist or both. Cause that liquid stuff they collected from the light switch in the kitchen is often found in hauntings that are caused by demons poltergeists or both. Love this movie never gets old.
Reading the comments before watching. I'm excited to watch it now. It was a good movie and no complaints. Thanks
It's definitely a slow burner but the last few minutes made the build up worth it. I really enjoyed it, I actually got goosebumps from the last 10 minutes of the movie, which is very difficult to do bc I'm quite desensitized as I consume a ton of horror material daily. Good job 👍👍
Pretty good paranormal movie. Well done on a low budget. Definitely creepy. "Houses have noises." Uh..not that give intelligent answers! It's got good phycological scares - not jump scares - that amp up as it goes along. Definitely one of the better ones on UA-cam!
This is true proper horror and SCARY. None of that CGI rubbish we see today. I was at the edge of my seat. Thank u so much for uploading. I've liked and subscribed.

Overall, good storyline... great camera work and acting was done extremely well for a low-budget production! And I say that with sincerity and as much respect to the movie crew and cast as possible especially considering how atrocious I've seen alot of actor/ess's doing in larger productions than this one so kudos to you guys!
It did not disappoint from its self-described story plot and yet the effects were also really good!
You guys did a really good job creating a really good movie for audiences to enjoy from home here with this one!
Thanks guys!
But is there a sequel to this? Thanks guys! 🙂
+Desperado TX edgy, huh?
I must have watched over a hundred short horror films on UA-cam this year, and I have to say this is absolutely one of the best. Acting and story development are head and shoulders above a lot of what I have watched. It's genuinely creepy.
Please do a sequel, the ending really left that door open, this definitely is one of the best FF movies around, simple yet unsettling, would love to see a follow up if it is ever in the works.
Despite me never having kids before, soon as I saw the marks on the kid I wanted to fly into the room and attack whatever did it like a vicious, rabid hellhound and rip it apart, like a dog. And seeing the face after only made it worse for me. I wanted to challenge it a just for a chance to rip it to shreds.

This video was scary AF!! Felt so sorry for the mum and her daughter. I was so frightened that creepy Patrick would reappear like in the film Annabelle Creation 😬😬 best paranormal film I have watched for a long time!!
Not the scariest movie, but very well done! I enjoy not having a cheesy jump scare, cat yowling, or music zinger. I loved that it took its time setting up your “storyline”, and acting was better than most B (and some A) movies.
I'm a big fan of horror/scary films. I remember when I became a fan, at the age of 4 I remember going to the movies to see Edward scissor hands and Misery. I'll say there has only been a handful of movies that scared, spooked or creeped me out as an adult. The Strangers, The Autopsy of Jane Doe, Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum, Dabbe: The Possession and now RORSCHACH. What made this film so creepy and unsettling to me was how subtle everything was. Nothing over the top or forced.
10/10 - Love horror stories, but they are often crap & not scary; this one however gave me chills, well acted to a point & scripted well. For a low budget horror, this is one of the best & the writer/director has real genuine talent & I eagerly await his next movie. The term less is more is true & utilized perfectly in this film.
Am a huge horror fan and you absolutely blew me back with this. So good.
The part that managed to scare me the most was at 52:00 when one of the investigators asks "Who's there?" Because right afterwards, as they walk down the stairs, the reflection of the mic creeps into the silhouette of the doorframe and I thought for certain it was a head peering around the corner from the kitchen. The head of something so tall, it had to stoop to look through. Scared the shit out of me, haha.
Lol.
That's exactly what a good horror does.
It gets you jumping at shadows.
It doesn't need to show you anything, because with a good enough build up and suspense, you'll see things yourself.
Lol
I’ve watched this 100 times throughout the years and it never gets old
Good movie. But if I owned a house that the unexplainable happened, I'd leave immediately.
You remained in that house! Black people would have said BYE!
I speak from hands on experience.
Watch the Charlie Chan Movies with Birmingham Brown: "Great gouga mouga, feet don't fail me now!"
Let me tell you something Zoey. At 17 years old I received my draft notice to report for my physical two weeks after my 18th birthday. Since I had already graduated high school at 15 years old I convinced me parents to sign me into the US Navy.
In my 34 years of service my family especially my children (I have 7 boys and 1 girl), I have seen many strange things. Living in a prepaid villa overseas with children that are attending a foreign school is not easy. But whenever strange unexplainable events that I and my family refuse to hang around for an explanation, my family and I beat Gone With The Wind in speed leaving that villa! As a child living with military parents, I have always since the Cuban Missile Crisis kept a Go (Bugout) Bag at the ready.
Life is way more valuable than school attendance or personal belongings.

Not saying you're wrong 100%, but I'm pretty sure that it is said as "hanged" in the context of death by hanging and not hung.
Veratilak Noievaheutum go ahead and move.. It could always follow you
I enjoyed this. It was a slow burn but was believable, their reactions were how you would behave in that situation. I also think if spirits/ghosts were a real thing they'd present themselves in this way, just small things they do would puncture our domestic banality, it wouldn't be as showy as Hollywood movies pretend it is. Very good.
I have watched this several times over the last few years. It is one of my favorites! I appreciate that there is no music too. That helps to make it more realistic. Love the characters. I feel for Jamy and her daughter. This would be a horrible situation to be in.
I think they did really well with this.I have a true story that occurred and if I was ever to have it represented in film...they would be able to capture the true terror and genuine traumatic fear that actually occurred.They would be able to create a believable,thought provoking, infrasonic stimulating film, that would honor the actual events that I experienced in an old house that was built in 1856 in Hannibal Missouri back in 1998-1999 and to this day.
WHEN IS THE SEQUEL!?! i’ve watched this 4 times over the last year. love it!

OK the production for this movie is amazing I jumped when the last scene happened awesome job guys please make a sequel to this movie
You did a VERY good job I thought. I'm 45 and jaded having watched A LOT of horror movies in my life (some favorite directors: Dario Argento, Alejandro Jodorowsky, David Lynch to name a few) while this was in a somewhat different vein, you did a wonderful job with character development and putting your viewer in that "suspension of disbelief mode" with hardly any budget... So, imo brilliant work! I hope to see more of your films!!!
Laura Lewis I too am a jaded horror fan. I think that's my demographic. Lol
Excellent film. I love the build up of unease and the suspense. Perfect little film to turn the lights off and enjoy the creepy feeling you get. I am a huge horror fan and this movie gave me what nothing out right now could, a genuine kick in the gut! I loved it! Thank you for sharing it with us. I look forward to seeing more of your work!
I wasn’t expecting much from this, I thought it was just another B-rated UA-cam film…but damn. This was so simple, yet so effective. It definitely kept my attention and the acting wasn’t bad at all. I very much enjoyed this! Thumbs up 👍
What other scary movies have you seen?
The noise the entity makes at the end literally gave me goosebump. Upon hearing it I pulled up my feet that were dangling off the side of my bed! I haven't done that since I was a little girl. As someone who watches at least one or two horror movies a day it's extremely rare that I find a movie that can scare/unnerve me.

LeAnn's Fear Cocktail the same! I litterally jump in bed now and my feet don’t touch the floor!
@b robz excuse me, i like horror movies to, i was very impressed by the movie ¨BRIMSTONE¨ If you havent seen it, you might like it.
Watch "The Atticus Institute" if you haven't seen it already. I am the same as you, 99% of horror films are laughable but that movie made me curl up and hide under my sheets.
Sam Turner 😂 That I would like to see!
I had to go back and watch the last scene where they ran out of the house...it even had me flipping on lights and holding my bible. I love scary movie's but this one I won't watch again, just because it felt so real. VERY GOOD! JOB WELL DONE, ESPECIALLY WITH THE SOUNDBOARD

stephanie holey you hold your bible when scary movies are on 😂 are you joking? You need Jesus to protect you from fiction. You don’t need to watch stuff like that if it gets you scared like all that. It’s fake
Truly terrifying. I'm not easily scared, most new horror does little but make me jump, but this little gem made me really uneasy . Which is great! A slow start but so worth it. No distracting music, or gore, but corner of the eye moments and areas of silence which my imagination filled in for me. I was unnerved to the pit of my stomach, and that is what gives me a scare. Haven't felt that for a while, that 70's folk horror, Ghostwatch , Twin Peaks Bob moment. Jimmies were indeed rustled. Great natural acting no chewing the scenery, didn't even notice the budget. Brilliantly Will definitely recommend to anyone who enjoys nightmares.
Kitteh, you have got to be a Main Boarder!

Everything you said about this film is exactly why I also loved it! I, also, and NOT easily scared, having watched The Exorcist when I was 10 (a very long time ago now), nothing much scares me but this one? Yeap, brilliant and scary!

Just watched your film and loved it!!! It had the creepy , scary make you turn all the lights on in your house vibe! I'll definitely be waiting for you to make more movies like this . Great cast , awesome short film.
Loved it!!
This was unnerving as hell, well done 👍🏻
I've been dying to watch this, but I keep putting it off! Now I'm so glad that I actually finally watched this! Great job guys! :-)
A wonderful "ghost" haunted our house when I was a kid, turns out she was the mother of the old man who sold it to my dad. She smiled a lot, didn't like opening doors, just came right through them. She often wore an apron and liked the kitchen. And she was chubby. This was 1974, she died in the early 1900s.
People don't become ghosts. You're either lying, demented, or your family was being fooled by a demon. Yes, there are definitely demons (fallen angels).
I agree. Demons do exist.

Hillary proved that to america.
Leo Mintzera no I believe you I've seen the legs of a ghost running up the steps didn't make no noise and it was fast!! Athletic in the Olympics fast and before that me and my friends saw a I guess if you want to call it what everyone else calls it alien ship but just a bright ass light in the day thought it was a plane I was 12 but it stayed there for hours then I told the rest of my boys I was playing football with they said the same it's an airplane I explained we sat down and just watched it from my friends backyard you can see this big building and it was on the left hand side of the building looked close to the building but far at the same time idk weird left came back on the right hand side then to the top back to the left then back to the right hand side of the building then took of so fast I've never seen nothing in my life seen something move that fast I can imitate the speed with a laser that's how fast never saw anything else the only strange things I've ever seen so I believe now and I don't scare easy for shit cause we're all going to die and see these things when we die anyways hope not hope I make it to heaven cause god is real bash me all you want make smart I'm fucking cool remarks all you want shit is real and I have witnesses the ghost running I got into a fight with my cuz that night over a girl he went upstairs I was sleeping downstairs went up to say sorry asked his sis if it was her that ran up the steps but she had bright yellow pjays on so it wasn't her and she not that fast my cuz is chubby so I know it wasn't him wasn't the dogs cause it was human legs I saw a waist to my cuz said yeah that's my dead uncle he probably got mad at me or was just checking on things but doubt that never know till you die
SquirrelCake I've wondered the same kind of things. Like if a ghost is a dead person then how or why would you have ghost clothes?
I've now watched this twice and I'm pissed off I didn't know about it sooner - best kept UA-cam gem?? Seriously this was flawless. It deserves so much more attention.
Thank you so much! We’ve gotten some write-ups on horror sites.
@@CASmithHorror good to hear! I hope there's much more to come. Big fan!
Now that's a good paranormal film,it should be on Netflix,the last few minutes scared the shit out of me.Well done,very well done.
Property at a lower price means there’s something fishy
The only thing fishier than property at a lower price is a free "scary" movie about property at a lower price
The scariest part for me was when the doll's head had moved. Excellent movie, I liked it a lot!
I was so waiting for the doll to be back in it's chair after it had been thrown away. Other than that this was excellent. Good acting, good suspence and the ending scene gave me chills 😱 great movie!
Haven’t even finished it yet but just had to jump on and say how impressed I am with this. I watch a ton of these on You Tube and this is definitely a stand out. N shout out to the actors, amazing job!
A really solid piece of work. No, it's not 'the scariest film online' - but it does a great job with building atmosphere that stays with you. Good performances, good script and pretty tense. Hope you do more!
John Drayton What movie is the scariest online?
@@elizaswedenn6136 I wonder about that too.
