About Ghostwatch

Ghostwatch is a British supernatural horror pseudo-documentary television film, first broadcast on BBC1 on Halloween night, 1992. Written by Stephen Volk, and directed by Lesley Manning, the drama was produced for the BBC anthology series Screen One by Richard Broke, Ruth Baumgarten and Derek Nelson. Although filmed several months in advance, the narrative was presented as live television. During and following its first and only UK television broadcast, the programme attracted considerable controversy, with the BBC receiving around 30,000 calls from distressed and angry viewers. Its reception has been compared to Orson Welles' 1938 radio adaptation of The War of the Worlds.
