The world of Thir13en Ghosts is finally being explored in the upcoming 13 part anthology; Thir13en Ghosts: The Series. But there is more on the way behind the scenes!

Dark Castle Entertainment is bringing back the story of the ghosts who were captured in glass cells and held inside a massive 8,000 square foot prison. However, fans may not know there is another project related to the remake of the 1960 classic currently in the works. 

‘Thir13en Ghosts’ Documentary

The Making of 13 Ghosts: Go Beyond the Black Zodiac is an independent full feature length documentary that is currently in development based on the 2001 movie. The project is spearheaded by Bryan Lewandowski. According to the newly launched Indiegogo campaign, the documentary is;

“about all of it — the interviews, the practical effects, the design of the ghosts, and how a divisive release became a classic.”

Are you a fan who has been wanting a follow up sequel ever since the 2001 release? Are you biting at the bit to see the new 13 part anthology? There is so much story yet to be told, both in front of the camera as well as behind. This documentary is going to explore all of it. 

The campaign promises the content will be;

“… the behind-the-scenes portrait fans have been waiting a quarter-century to see.”

This documentary is going to answer all of your questions from 25 years ago!

One Ghost Closer

Reward incentives for donations include the typical run of the mill autographs, as well as having your name in the credits. However, at the higher tiers is where it gets interesting. For those who are among the most dedicated fans, a higher donation grants you access to a bonus reel of unused interview footage. Another exclusive perk is access to director Bryan Lewandowski’s commentary, for all of us nerds who enjoy knowing all of the details, no matter how big or small. 

Furthermore, for every $1,000 contributed towards the $13,000 goal, an original poster will be released of the 13 ghosts. Recently The Jackal has been unlocked! Who will be next?

Every dollar donated will help the documentary team get closer to capturing all of the pivotal knowledge held by the cast and crew two and a half decades ago!
