Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaRochester, New York, native Frank LaLoggia based the film on a popular and long-standing local urban legend known as "The White Lady." Legend has it that the White Lady had a daughter who disappeared at the hands of a predatory young suitor, and so the White Lady roams the lake front to this very day, searching for her missing daughter. The supposed residence of the White Lady is actually the base of a demolished hotel that was built in the 1800s. Known as the White Lady's Castle, it has become a popular tourist attraction and party site for teenagers.
- GoofsThough CPR has been commonly used by medical officials since 1957, it wasn't promoted as a technique for the public to learn until the 1970s.

Featured review
When you see where the Halloween topic has been through,the likes of Carpenter's stuff,it's a wonder one can make a non-gore ,adult,clever movie on such a hackneyed subject.
The main theme in "lady in white" is the fear of losing our dear ones,a fear which dwells in every child.Not only the young hero-played by a sensitive actor-lost his mother at such an early age but remember that Phil suffered the death of both his father and his mother too.Even the ghost (the little girl) cannot find peace of mind because of her splintered childhood.The black children will experience this terrible fate.
The spirit of HALLOWEEN is the core of the movie who could be dedicated to our faithful departed.
It's amazing to see Lucy Lee Flippin,resuming her schoolteacher career,which she began in "little house" as Eliza-Jane Wilder,Laura's sister in law.
"Lady in white" is a movie one can recommend .It paved a reliable way for "the sixth sense".Its incredible several moments will make your watching worthwhile.
