This week, I came across a trailer for an upcoming movie titled The Possession.  Here is the trailer:
Marketing itself as “based on a true story,” the movie appears to be a reimagining of the classic horror The Exorcist, only with the spiritual assistance of a Rabbi instead of a Priest.  The “true story” is based on the sale of a “haunted Jewish wine cabinet box” that contains a spirit called a dibbuk.  Of course, the entity possesses a little girl and the horror begins.  For more information on this upcoming movie, which does promise to be chilling (true story or not), check out the official website.

Possession is a common theme in horror, one I actually use as a B-plot in The Hidden Valley: Carrie’s Story.  In Carrie’s Story, the creature controlling South Bend—a town that is not at all what it seems—enters Carrie’s body and uses her as a puppet, terrorizing her for its own enjoyment.  Unlike other possession plots, however, no one else has any idea she’s been taken over, although her behavior is suspicious at times.  Her husband suspects she has fallen victim to early onset Alzheimer’s disease, which claimed her mother.  Even she suspects she has lost her mind.  Perhaps she has….

My sister and I love horror movies and "The Possession" looks good. Nothing can beat "The Exorcist," but I still want to see it.

The Hidden Valley is intriguing. I'll be adding it to my reading list.
