The Haunting in Connecticut (2009) watch online

The Haunting in Connecticut is a 2009 supernatural horror film directed by Peter Cornwell in his feature directorial debut, and starring Virginia Madsen, Kyle Gallner, Martin Donovan, Amanda Crew, and Elias Koteas. The film follows a family who, to help mitigate the strains of travel on their cancer-stricken son, move into a former funeral home with a dark history. It is based on the alleged supernatural experiences of Carmen Snedeker and her family while residing in a former funeral home in Southington, Connecticut in the late 1980s. The Snedeker family's experiences were documented by writer Ray Garton in In a Dark Place: The Story of a True Haunting (1992), though Garton later publicly distanced himself from the accuracy of the events he depicted in the book.

Development of The Haunting in Connecticut began in 2007 through Gold Circle Films, with John Carpenter originally attached as director, though Carpenter eventually backed out of the project due to creative differences, with Cornwell serving as his replacement. Principal photography took place in Teulon, Manitoba in late 2007.

The Haunting in Connecticut had its world premiere at South by Southwest in Austin, Texas on March 17, 2009, before being theatrically released in the United States and Canada the following week. The film grossed approximately $78.8 million internationally. Critical reaction to the film was largely unfavorable, though it did receive some praise for its atmosphere, visual elements, and performances.

In 2010, Gold Circle Films announced the production of an indirect sequel, The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia, which was released in 2013.
