Trivia
Ed Warren and Lorraine Warren, who are known for involvement in The Amityville Horror case, were investigators for this case.

Goofs
Corpses' eyes dessicate noticeably and morticians as a matter of routine fill out eye sockets with cotton wadding for open-casket funerals. As a result, corpses that have had their eyelids cut off would not have the natural looking eyes portrayed here.

Quotes
[reciting a poem]
Matt Campbell: One bright day in the middle of the night, two dead boys got up to fight. Back to back they faced each other, drew their swords and shot each other. A deaf policeman heard the noise and came and killed those two dead boys.

Alternate versions
An unrated version has been released on DVD which runs 10 minutes longer than the PG-13 Theatrical Version (92mins) and also runs the same length as the version approved in the UK by the BBFC at 102mins. 98% of the changes relate on different color schemes of individual takes - partly only frame-short - as well as alternative material. The supernatural appearances are mainly in monochrome but colored in the unrated version. Many things can only be recognized in single frame mode or while watching entirely close.

No Ghosts Were Harmed In The Making Of This Film...

In THE HAUNTING IN CONNECTICUT, the Campbell family moves into a former funeral home (!) in order to be closer to the doctor of their terminally ill son. They're unaware that their new home was once the site of unspeakable acts of necromancy.

Now, the former victims of these violations are out to make their presence known.

This movie exceeds expectations. The story is engaging, the characters are believable, and the ghouls are original. Virginia Madsen plays the tormented Mrs. Campbell with the perfect balance of familial love and growing terror. Kyle Gallner is Matt, who gets one of the most memorable scenes in this or any other supernatural tale!

Definitely worth a look...
