Paranormal Activity is a little video that was reportedly created for $11,000 over
the course of a seven-day shoot by simply writer/director/producer/editor Oren Peli,
and stars newbies Katie Featherston, Micah Sloat and the couple's video camera.
The ghost history is pretty straightforward: Katie and Micah (the famous actors use
their actual names in the movie) are a young couple of who have been together pertaining to
about a year or two and still have recently taken the plunge regarding moving in together.
Shortly after, they begin to experience bizarre paranormal activity taking place within
their home - equipment and lighting and sinks turning on and off, doorways slamming, etc. Katie
soon reveals that this isn't the very first time she's been "haunted by ghosts" :
when she seemed to be 8, she had re-occurring visits from a shadowy apparition and her
family's home was ultimately burned to the ground without having explanation. Since
next, the apparition has observed Katie wherever your woman goes, "visiting" her via
time to time, up to the prevailing. Micah wishes that Anne had told him or her all this
BEFORE they moved in jointly.
Katie is usually freaking out about the reappearance with her ghostly stalker, but Micah
(certainly) is too MANLY to consentrate in such nonsense, consequently he invests in the top-
grade camera, a number of top-grade mini microphones as well as sound recording computer software, in
order to be able to wire the house for just a ghost-hunting experiment. Our POV is the one about the
camcorder plus boom mic, when they record the paranormal happenings taking place
in Anne and Micha's home during the period of about three weeks.
That's the setup, and it could well be hard to go more intense without dropping some
major spoilers.
