The original Poltergeist movie scared the pants off of me when I was a kid. The scene with the tree? The evil clown toy? The guy pulling off his own face in the mirror? These scenes all live rent-free inside my brain, and they probably always will. That being said, the 1982 film is still a classic that earned its place in the horror canon. The story is the brainchild of Steven Spielberg, who co-wrote the screenplay and produced it.

Just a few pages into the book it’s clear that the main character, Elizabeth Zott, is not your typical leading lady. Her no-nonsense demeanor and unwavering self reliance sets her apart from the typical rom-com heroine, particularly one who exists in the 1950s.
