If this one is the movie that had Donald Sutherland as the father, then yes it was based on a true haunting. The story goes that there was a poltergeist like haunting on the farm. It surrounded a girl who had gone into puberty, and her father. The father finally died as a result of the experience.
I live in Connecticut (for my entire life) and yes - this is based on a real haunting or what was thought to be an actual haunting.





I'm not sure if the town's actual name will be divulged in the film - I guess we'll just have to wait and see on the 27th.





At this point in time - I am not sure if anyone occupies the residence - that may be the reason the town's actual name has been kept from much of the promo's and media?





Just noticed in one article - they are reporting the haunting is from the Southington/Meriden area (so the closest hospital would have been Yale New Haven Hosp.).


I am not positive but it may have been in the mid to late 80s? Around '86 or '87?





Hope this info helps!
