ABOUT
Author Shirley Jackson (The Lottery, The Haunting of Hill House) was known for transforming her daily fears and anxieties into literature full of menace and shadowy dread. In this theatrical film essay, the line between fiction and reality blurs as filmmaker Samantha deManbey channels Jackson in a séance of masks, mirrors, and whispered voices, finding stories that overlap eerily with her own life.
CAST: Charles Amaral '08, Jack Crory '09, Samantha deManbey '12, Madaline Falcone, Joanna Karamanou '03, Christina Kim '11, Mike Knight '03.
COMPOSER: Seamus Knight
