Buffalo, NY – Just in time for Halloween, a film about haunted theaters in the Buffalo area premiers tonight at the Riviera Theatre in North Tonawanda. It's a documentary titled "Ghostlights: Folklore, Skepticism and Belief," produced by Morphine Hearts Productions.

Matthew LaChiusa is one of the filmmakers who spent three years assembling the documentary. He joined us on the phone to talk more about it. Click the audio player above to hear Mark Scott's interview now or use your podcasting software to download it to your computer or iPod.

It will be screened Thursday night at the Riviera Theatre in North Tonawanda. Festivities begin at 7:00 with a Haunted Happy Hour. The filmmakers will answer questions afterward.
