Spirits

About This Movie

Spirits (2014) is one of those indie horror flicks that tries to capture the eerie essence of a haunted location. The film centers on four high school students returning to ShadowView Manor, a place steeped in past trauma from a séance that went sideways. There's this creeping tension as they reconnect, the atmosphere hanging heavy with dread. The practical effects are modest but effective, creating genuine scares without over-reliance on CGI. The pacing might feel a bit uneven at times, but it kind of adds to the overall disorientation of the story. The performances, especially from the leads, feel raw and authentic, grounding the supernatural elements in a believable way. It's an interesting take on friendship and trauma set against this creepy backdrop.
