Whatever you do.. Don't Go Into the Attic

The Changeling (1980)

Dir- Peter Medak
George C Scott stars in this very scary movie that involves ghosts and personal demons. John (Scott) is a New York musician who witnesses the death of his wife and daughter in an auto accident. Afterward, he moves to Seattle to continue with his life but is haunted by their tragic deaths. He rents an old mansion from the historical society and soon discovers that a ghost is present. With the aid of a local historian, he discovers a seventy-year-old murder mystery that may involve a prominent senator. The events of the film were inspired by real-life ghostly occurrences in the Denver mansion of Henry Treat Rogers. The Changeling was set in Seattle but filmed in Vancouver and Victoria, Canada. Despite filming in Canada, many prominent landmarks were filmed to showcase Seattle's beautiful cityscape. A well made ghost story the features plenty of frights and a creepy wheelchair that adds to the thrill. There are many terrifying moments to keep up the suspense as we learn the real truth behind the ghost.
