    I agree with Steel. As great as a movie as Session 9 is, it's not a ghost movie. It's about multiple personality disorder and schizophrenia. I guess you could label it as "internal ghosts".....

    My vote is for Poltergeist, the best ghost film in history in my opinion, although the original version of The Haunting is close.

    Was that the one where the ghost keeps trying to rape the woman?
    And then they trapped the ghost and turned it into ice or something.

    No. The ghosts of a young girl's step mom and real mom attack each other. Step mom's ghost is trying to kill the child. Real mom's ghost prevents her from doing that.

    :shakehead My mom would call you Bitchy Longstocking. The majority of the films are more or less horror, so I figured I'd just put this in the Horror section.

    But personally I don't just consider Ghostbusters a comedy, but What Lies Beneath a drama. If you want to nitpick over the title of the poll, I never said "What's your favorite scary ghost story?".

    Really? Bitchy? A bit harsh isn't it? Wasn't flaming the poll or taking any cracks at anyone. It was a simple question that I thought was a relatively civil discussion point. But thats alright. I'll revert to the "not another poll" and "wtf did you post this" type posts these kinds of threads usually generate if thats what you are baiting me for. If anything, I aim to please.

    Not on the list, but the The Innocents (1961) is my favourite.



    Closely followed by The Haunting (1963)



    ...and The Legend of Hell House (1973)
