The main strengths are the script and the acting. The one distraction for me was the mediocre makeup of the ghosts. The male ghost has a green cast to him, while for some reason the female ghosts does not. This inconsistency doesn't make sense. Plus, the green corpse makeup isn't very good. These shortcomings are especially unfortunate because it would have taken no more effort, no more budget, and very little imagination two vastly improve the appearance of the specters.
Still, the program is pretty creepy in parts, and sets a suspenseful pace from beginning to end.
