GHOST TOWN
JAMIE ROBERTS - CAMERA, PRODUCER & DIRECTOR - PRODUCTION COMPANY: ARCHER’S MARK
Pontefract is a historic ex-mining town located in West Yorkshire, the most haunted county in the UK and home of “Europe’s most violent poltergeist”. Every Pomfrecian either lives with a ghost, has had a supernatural experience or knows someone who has.
This 30 minute film explores this passion for the paranormal, how and why it has manifested within this community and the consequent commercial exploitation of the supernatural through the eyes of the colourful local community members.
