One morning he was found dead on the battlefield, and Philip Aylesford was no more. He then later was stricken with remorse, in which the only way he could deal with it was to fight in the battle of Diddington. Because Philip was much too worried about his reputation, he didn’t protest the idea of Margo being a witch, resulting in her being burned at the stake. But as most secrets go, it didn’t last forever because his wife, Dorothea, found out about Margo and accused her of witchcraft.
Needlessly to say, Philip and Margo became secret lovers. One day, he ran into a beautiful gypsy girl named Margo who he almost instantly fell in love with. In his biography they stated that he was a 17th century English noble who was married to a beautiful, yet cold and unfriendly wife named Dorothea. In doing so, they wrote a biography of this made up person, who they named Philip Aylesford. Essentially what they did was pull “facts” out of thin air to attach to the life of this fictional character that they were creating. The experiments (which became known as the Philip Experiment) began in 1972 where their first task was to create a fictional historical character. Was this small group of people going to change the way we looked at the supernatural? Joel Whitton also attended many of the experiments as an observer. Owen’s wife, an industrial designer, an accountant, a housewife, a bookkeeper and a sociology student. Alan Robert George Owen created the group known as TSPR (Toronto Society for Psychical Research) consisting of eight people-Dr. In doing so it would prove their theory that those unexplained bumps in the night are actually products of the human mind. In the 1970’s there was a group of Canadian parapsychologists who aimed to conduct an experiment that would create a ghost. This is the true story that inspired The Quiet Ones. But do ghosts actually exist, or is it something that our very mind manifests? Can we actually be the ones creating the ghost? That’s the question they set out to answer, and what they found turned out to be quite shocking. Now that’s quite the twist on your typical ghost story isn’t it? We all know someone who claims to have experienced a supernatural event, or maybe even you yourself have have seen a ghost.
#The quiet ones movie#
The movie bases itself off of a little experiment that a group of scientists conducted back in the 70’s where they set out to create a ghost of their very own. The John Pogue-directed haunter recently found a spot on my “Most Anticipated” list so I decided to do a little digging to find out just what the film’s inspiration was.
