The title of the film was misspelled as "Ghost Storeis" in much of the pre-release media. This was done to accord with the production's tagline "The brain sees what it wants to see" See more »
The title card bursts onto the screen suddenly, accompanied by a screech, and is then scrunched up as if written on paper before being replaced by a series of long-lasting numbers. See more »
A cut above the usual skeptic vs supernatural movie, necessarily episodic, with a good vein of comedy and a strong sense of dread. Like the rest of its little genre, it has interesting things to say about the social role of the paranormal, but it comes alive when it turns its attention to its protagonist.
