The Other Side: Giving Up the Ghost, directed by Andrew Keyser and written by Tonya Keyser, is an exploration of the culture associated with ghost stories and paranormal investigation. The film begins in Gettysburg, PA, home of 14 thriving ghost tour companies, showcasing a storyteller and 3 ghost tours. The town and battlefield are popular destinations for the multitudes who find themselves fascinated by ghosts and ghost stories. Each year, thousands of individuals and groups, ranging from the casual amateur to the serious scientist, find their way to this place, forever hallowed by the men who fought and died there in 1863. This film examines what drives our interest in the paranormal and how the media and popular culture influence and capitalize upon this interest. Skeptics, a philosopher, a sociologist, an anthropologist, and paranormal investigators take us on a journey through the unknown to demystify that which has typically been sensationalized by the media.
