(1989) Secret Screams/ Grave Secrets HORROR.

It has a ghost lecturer. Paul (David Shaw) receiving a rejection letter of funding handed by his assistant, Darla (Olivia Barash) and he finds out it was the result of refusing to forget about his wife's untimely death. A lady who introduces herself as Iris Norwood (Renée Soutendijk) at first made attempts to entice him to come and visit her 'Bed and Breakfast" inn called the "Homestead House" and tries to do this by slipping him a $5,000 check. After spilling her coffee, and going to grab paper towels while at a diner, she then just decides to walk out without saying a word. But because she left him her bed and breakfast card, he decides to come and visit her. At first,, David was skeptical but had she not handed her the check there would be no motivation to investigate her claims. But just as he agreed to spend one night before leaving, eggs were levitating from a bowl, one of them hitting his face. And it was during then, he sets up comps and cameras around the establishment, unleashing her personal connection to the ghost that's been stalking, haunting her, in which it's family oriented.

The big reveal after David Shaw invited known seance medium, Dr. Carl Farnsworth (David Warner) and his personal assistant, Darla to communicate with the ghostly figure haunting her. It turns out Iris had a family history with the inn in which her dad assaulted her, and buried the baby alive in denial. Iris's main objective was to find out where her father had buried the baby and to give him a proper burial. One of the problems is that the movie was never scary but it did keep me at least interested without cringing.
