5.0 out of 5 stars PATTY DUKE..EXCELLENT AS ALWAYS!!, December 5, 2005

I first saw GRAVE SECRETS about 10 years ago and recently bought the
DVD here in the UK. I myself am a paranormal investigator and found
this movie to be one of the best movies based on a factual ghost story
I've ever seen, Yes it is a TV Movie, So if you are expecting Special
effects galore and Hollywood-ised horror then you wont get it here.

This is one of the most realistic movies based on ghosts and is mostly
like how it really is. The story is based on actual events "the legacy
of hilltop drive" and stars the amazing actress "Patty Duke" who is
well known for all her excellent "based on real events" TV Movies.

This movie has an excellent story, and what makes it even more gripping
and interesting is that its based on real events that happened to the
whole neighbourhood at hilltop drive. Every house hold had a ghost and
eventually the whole neighbourhood was empty as everyone eventually
moved away as they could no longer take living with the ghosts. It is
fact that the real Hill top drive is now a abandoned neighbourhood and
no one lives there.

I highly recommend this movie to serious Patty Duke fans, and people
who like a good ghost movie that doesn't have all the scary factor
thrills that come from Hollywood movies. Although the movie IS SCARY,
it just doesn't need special effects to make it scary!

This review is from: Grave Secrets (DVD)

The best part of Grave Secrets aside from the fact that it was based on a true story is Patty Duke who always gives us wonderful performances. This is also called The Legacy of Hilltop Drive. You can probably find more information on the internet about what happened to Ben and Jean Williams and the rest of their family. The home they moved into was built on an old cemetary called The Black Hope and supposedly the deceased began to haunt the residents in the neighborhood in strange ways. Toilets would flush on their own, the garage door opened and closed by itself, it was chilly a lot of the time, there were unexplained shadows on the wall, etc. The Williams tried to take legal action againgst the developers but with no luck. They eventually moved out after a family tragedy. If you enjoy the occasional TV-movie, this is a good one. Don't expect fancy special effects or high production values like you would in big Hollywood films. But this is still a good movie to watch on a Sunday afternoon. Some other ghost movies you may enjoy with better budgets are Burnt Offerings, The Changeling or The Others with Nicole Kidman.
