Ghost in the Water

Hello. "Ghost in the Water" is a supernatural tv movie from 1982. It was directed by Renny Rye, who also worked on the tv series "Box of Delights/" The actors of "Ghost in the Water" are Judith Allchurch, Ian A. Stevens (one of the zombie dancers in Michael Jackson's "Thriller") and Jane Freeman (who appeared also in "Last of the Summer Wine"). This is based on the novel of the same name by author Edward Chitham. then adapted by writer Geoffrey Case. 

A chilling mystery when a school teacher gives homework to students Tess and David about local history. There is a piece of folklore about a Victorian girl who committed suicide and it's up to the students to find out if this was true or not. Tess experiences disturbing visions of a funeral with traumatic side effects. 

This is a pleasant ghost story and mystery with sleuthing and adventures. The acting is realistic, the era looks gothic and with Victorian times blended with 1980's. This is the only film Judith Allchurch has made. It was filmed at Link Academy which was formerly called Hillcrest School in Netherton. It was made by the BBC and fun to watch for all ages. I give this a nice 7/10 for atmospheric eeriness. 

My personal likes is the wholesome innocence from the early 80's style film.

My personal dislikes is now after watching this, baths won't be the same again.
