Truly a bridge over troubled water.
The Haunting of Helen’s Bridge–a film that deals with the frightening urban legend surrounding Helen’s Mountain and its bridge in Asheville, North Carolina–recently wrapped up principal photography, according to a report in Variety. No release window has yet been announced.
The feature–directed by Stephen Presley from a screenplay he wrote with Gemma Esau–stars Michelle Collins (Coronation Street).
The film follows the malevolent spirit of Helen–“a grieving mother who, overwhelmed by the loss of her child, met a tragic end by hanging herself from the bridge.”
Collins, who has never appeared in a horror film before, said she “was thrilled when this opportunity came along. Despite initially being worried about having nightmares after the filming, I genuinely enjoyed the whole experience–and I’d love to make another horror movie now.”
In explaining his approach to the movie, Presley said he “aspired to craft a film that intricately blurs the lines between fact and fiction–creating a space where authenticity prevails in every element.”
