Writer-director Stefan Avalos follows up his indie frightfest THE LAST BROADCAST with another meta inquiry into the symbiotic relationship between filmmaking and reality. Recovering from a mental breakdown, former model Rachel (Paula Ficara) and her boyfriend Kevin (Stephen Wastell) move to Los Angeles to pursue careers in screenwriting. Obsessive about Tinseltown history, the movie-buff couple rent a comfortable bungalow in the hillside community of Edendale, an east Hollywood enclave that was witness to the horrific accident death of a silent-era movie star nearly 80 years ago. But as Kevin's feverish work on a Western screenplay immerses him more and more in the insulated world of his own obsession--a la Jack Nicholson's iconic turn in THE SHINING--Rachel begins suffering from writer's block and nightmarish visions of ghostly possessions that threaten both her sanity and her life.

Low budget scares - low rent script - high return on your investment.

Perhaps his biggest feat is in getting Warner Brothers to acquire this film for DVD distribution

Using an absorbing mixture of historical fact and supernatural fiction, The Ghosts of Edendale is a creepy and effective spook show.
