Project Detail

Slumber Party

Synopsis

5 girls, 1 house, big mistake! Confused, foggy and possibly insane, Simon was once a successful businessman who was thrown into pop management by chance. PR guru and Elvis lookalike, Keith, recognises Simon's strengths (his pop band), and his weakness (his own mental stability) and carefully manipulates them both for his own ends.

Wooed by the possibility of big time stardom, Aussie girl group, The Sheila's, are persuaded by Simon and Keith to stay overnight in the UK's most haunted house as part of a charity stunt. The event is filmed live and is linked to a studio debate. The usual TV 'experts' are assembled - physic, shaman, psychologist, historian and ghost hunter - in the studio to watch the action in the haunted house and debate the ethics of such a fundraising campaign. As a publicity stunt it was a brilliant idea, but no-one bargained for the fact that the house really is haunted and the studio panel plus a national audience watch the events unfold with unpredictable and catastrophic consequences.

Half of the movie was filmed in a haunted house in Suffolk, England, and much of what was shot was unexpected, alarming and makes very compelling viewing.
