Stop Worrying About About Dead Things
5 July 2017
Warning: Spoilers
This is a made for TV ghost story.

Dave (Callum Keith Rennie) and Jean (Maria Bello) are married and have both lost spouses. Unlike the Brady Bunch, we eventually find out what happened to them. Jean has two children, Molly (Sophie Nélisse) an emotional 12 year old and Michael (William Dickinson), slightly younger and pragmatic. Dave has a daughter Heather (Isabelle Nélisse), younger than the other two. She is quiet and creepy. They move from Baltimore to a rural area in a church converted into a house. The year is 1982 as we get to revisit Walkmans, ripped jeans, cassettes, 18% car loans, and carbon paper. A ghost appears and befriends Heather. Not good.

This was a vapor ghost that needed to open doors. Sophie Nélisse was satisfactory in her role while Isabelle Nélisse needed a bigger creep factor. No jump scares. The ghost needed a higher scare factor, i.e. some more creepy crawly.
