New Poster for The Haunting in Connecticut

In case you are wondering what that stuff coming from that kids mouth is, it's ectoplasm.

What exactly IS ectoplasm?

Charles Richet created the word ectoplasm from the Greek words ektos and plasma, which together mean "outside formed" to first describe the physical manifestations of spiritual energy. It comes out of the medium’s orifices (ears, nose, mouth, etc.) in a gauzy or gooey-like substance. It’s most memorable in the movie Ghost Busters when the characters “got slimed” – that was ectoplasm.

Often when found in photographs, any unexplainable mist and vapors have been called ectoplasm. The structure of the ectoplasm can vary, but is always a result of paranormal activity.



Here is the official Synopsis for The Haunting In Connecticut film synopsis:

Based on a chilling true story, Lionsgate's THE HAUNTING IN CONNECTICUT charts one family's terrifying, real-life encounter with the dark forces of the supernatural. When the Campbell family moves to upstate Connecticut, they soon learn that their charming Victorian home has a disturbing history: not only was the house a transformed funeral parlor where inconceivable acts occurred, but the owner's clairvoyant son Jonah served as a demonic messenger, providing a gateway for spiritual entities to crossover.

Now unspeakable terror awaits, when Jonah, the boy who communicated with the powerful dark forces of the supernatural, returns to unleash a new kind of horror on the innocent and unsuspecting family.


The Haunting In Connecticut hits theaters on March 27.
