Haunting at the Beacon Brings Michael Stokes Restricted Script to DVD/Blu-Ray September 13th

Previously titled The Beacon, Take 2 Releasing will distribute a Haunting at the Beacon on DVD September 13th. This is a tale of a mother's (Teri Polo) woe, as a deceased child looks for supernatural revenge! This film was shot at the famed Rogers Hotel in Texas and director Michael Stokes became frightened on set by "sightings of strange orbs and even the sounds of children laughing and crying." Haunting at the Beacon also stars Michael Ironside, Davis Rees Snell and Elaine Hendrix.

Fans of film might recognize director Stokes from his writing on the horror feature The Marsh (2006) starring Forest Whitaker, or the high-octane thriller Exit Speed (2008). Haunting at the Beacon is Stokes directorial debut and this latest feature stays true to Stokes trend to write, almost exclusively, restricted rated horror features. Get your haunted disc below and re-visit the ghostly trailer inside.

The synopsis for Haunting at the Beacon:

``While trying to get their lives back on track after the loss of their four-year-old son, Bryn (Teri Polo) and Paul Shaw (David Rees Snell) move to the charming old Beacon Apartments.

Bryn begins seeing a ghostly little boy skulking around the building and tries to uncover the details of the boy's death. She hopes that freeing the child will allow him to carry a message to her son. Too late she realizes a second malevolent entity stalks the halls of the Beacon: one that doesn't want the boy, or her, to escape" (Take 2).
