Got Ghosts?
What is the Ghost Stories Project?
An experimental film documenting personal stories about ghosts; sightings, possessions, portals and poltergeists. Stories range from chilling to inspirational and include dreams, magic and astral travel.
Most of the stories are real -- but some are not. You decide.
