Apple TV+ has unveiled the trailer and release date for its upcoming chilling documentary series ‘The Enfield Poltergeist’ which tells the riveting story of the most famous poltergeist haunting in history.
In 1977, the terrifying haunting of an everyday family in Enfield, London dominated headlines across the United Kingdom and had a tremendous impact on an entire generation of children. The mysterious case forever changed ideas about the supernatural, and showed that it wasn’t just restricted to certain places but could be experienced by anyone, anywhere. The chilling story inspired fictionalized versions of the case, including the film “The Conjuring 2,” a television series and a stage play.
Combining more than 250 hours of rare audio archive, meticulous recreation of the setting of the haunting and original interviews with the people impacted by the case, the four part series is an ambitious, genre-bending story that explores the human fascination with the unexplained and its impact on those who live it.
Throughout four episodes of ‘The Enfield Poltergeist’, the events are reconstructed using the real recordings captured by Maurice Grosse, a paranormal investigator who archived all of his interviews with those affected by the phenomenon. Building an exact replica of the house where the incidents took place, performers reenact what is heard on the actual tapes, allowing an interplay by the archival voices and appearances of those originally involved in the incident through present-day interviews.
Directed by Jerry Rothwell, ‘The Enfield Poltergeist’ is produced for Apple TV+ by MetFilm and Concordia Studio. All episodes of ‘The Enfield Poltergeist’ will premiere globally on 27th October, 2023.
