The Haunting Truth documentary

Who doesn't enjoy a good scary story now and again? But what if these stories are fact? The documentary The Haunting Truth discusses such stories in Oakland County and was made by Davison-based film maker Jeff Jones. Jones spent over a year compiling information on popular tales in Pontiac, Romeo and Addison Township, where he found the most paranormal activity.

Some of the tales included Cranberries Cafe in Goodrich, Dunn's tomb in Lakeville, and the Eagle theater and Erebus Haunted House in Pontiac.

On Nov. 21 I was able to see the documentary at Cranberries Cafe. I was pretty impressed that Jones was able to get multiple accounts on hauntings and paranormal happenings in these areas. Instead of regurgitating legend, like many documentaries do, he had eyewitnesses coroborate the stories.

This film has peaked my curiousity of haunted places in the area. Who knows, maybe this writer will find herself at Dunn's tomb this weekend.
