We have reached a time in the cinema, it has become very difficult to find a horror film that has the ability to affect the viewer, as most of the films that call themselves horror films, you find them in the end either trivial, or blood and murder films ... It is absolutely not worth wasting your time with her, and we talk Especially for fans and nerds of this movie category.
But fortunately for this category of viewers, from time to time there are still some directors who understand what a horror movie is, and in this case, talking about Ghost Stories, which is a valuable gift for those looking for a terrifying journey in the supernatural world.
The beautiful thing about this movie is its interesting story, which revolves around a skeptical professor of everything related to these worlds, and everything related to ghosts and demons ..., as he will embark on a mission to prove that all these things are nothing but myths invented by some to laugh at the shins of the hopeless Of them, who will find a lost file for some time about three cases that have been stalked by satanic creatures from the metaphysical world.
The main events of the film are about trying to understand this skeptic person of these three cases, and each case is narrated from a different perspective to the other in succession, and each one is considered very terrifying than the next. The director is very cool in the way each one narrates, where the director places the camera in a place that deludes you that you see something in the mirror or in the reflection of light or in someone’s imagination ... but in reality there is nothing despite that these small details were enough to create An atmosphere full of terror, because something really terrifying is coming after that, which will freeze the blood in your veins!
The director and script of the film were directed by two people, Jeremy Dyson and Andy Nyman, the latter is the same as the hero of the film, and the other studied philosophy, which was clearly influencing the story.

One of the things that distinguishes this movie is its story, as you always hate those who doubt some things that you are sure of their realism (I speak in general), until they encounter something that will strip them of suspicion and clash with the suspicious reality that leaves them unable to speak.
This is exactly what this movie deals with; A person who does not believe in demons and spirits ... and always strives to deny everyone who claims these matters, until the moment arrives that what happened to him will happen to those whom he lied. Nice story that makes you anxious to know what is going to happen to him and what will happen to him.
The best thing about this film also, far from the horror context in it, is the psychological-philosophical aspect that, as we have said, its influence came from the writer and director Jeremy Dyson, as the film discusses the mystery that was and still hovering around the subconscious of the human mind and its ability to manipulate you according to what you believe in and what It is the nature of your beliefs, as it says in the advertising subtitle of the movie (tagline): "The brain sees only what it wants to see", and this phrase remains the best example that the film is a mental psychological experience full of terrifying horror .
The only strange and unconvincing thing about the film is its ending, as it was somewhat incomprehensible and ambiguous, which did not end it with that splendor that it began with, but despite that, it did not have a great impact on the film in general, as it remains one of the strongest horror films , Among the best ones ever
