WINNER! Nevermore Jury Award - Best Picture (US/Canada)WINNER! Nevermore Jury Award - Best Actor - MacLeod Andrews ("Jack")Nevermore Jury Award Nominee - Best Actress - Natalie Walker ("Muriel")Nevermore Jury Award Nominee - Best Director - Adam Stovall Adam Stovall’s remarkable and haunting horror comedy has taken what boils down to a simple premise – a lonely man falls in love with the female ghost that is haunting him -- and delivers an emotionally affecting and wonderful love story that even the most hardened of horror fans will appreciate. A Ghost Waits is both a humorous haunted house movie, and a surprisingly tender exploration of isolation, loneliness and the fundamental human need for connection.&nbsp;The long-dead Muriel (Natalie Walker, TV’s Search Party) scares off the hapless residents of “her” house by floating above them in her flowing black dress, screeching, as the black veins pop from her face and neck. As they flee in terror, she returns to Earth with a satisfied smile and restored porcelain complexion. It’s a successful bit, until she comes up against Jack (MacLeod Andrews, They Look Like People) who has been tasked with cleaning the now-vacant house and making it ready for its new occupants. When her usual methods — moving objects, opening doors — don’t scare him, Muriel finds herself intrigued enough to start a conversation with him. Finding they have much in common, not least a desire to belong, Muriel and Jack are drawn together.&nbsp;But when Muriel’s spiky boss, Spectral Advisor Ms. Henry (Amanda Miller), insists that Muriel must frighten Jack away if she is to keep her home, Jack is spurred to take extreme action. Filmed in Cincinnati, OH, and Lakeside Park, KY.&nbsp; BONUS CONTENT: Director Adam Stovall and Actor MacLeod Andrews participate in a 38-minute Q&amp;A with film critic tt stern-enzi about the inspiration, making-of, and process of shooting of A Ghost Waits.
