The Apparition is a 2012 horror film written and directed by Todd Lincoln, and starring Ashley Greene, Sebastian Stan, Luke Pasqualino, and Tom Felton.The film opens with a group of college students attempting to resume a parapsychology experiment from the 1970s, in which a deceased researcher was successfully contacted. After the experiment meets with seemingly disastrous results, the focus abruptly shifts to a young couple who soon begin to suspect that something is very wrong within their brand new home. | |

Never Trust a Trailer | |
| The Apparition / int_19ebe383 | comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: The movie's trailer has more of a plot than the finished film does - implying the evil whatsit will only attack people once they start believing in it, an interesting concept not present in the movie. | |

Wrong Genre Savvy | |
| The Apparition / int_20a14df0 | comment |
Wrong Genre Savvy: Patrick's scientific theories would probably work brilliantly if he were in the Ghost Story he thinks he is. Unfortunately for everyone involved, he doesn't realize until far too late that it is actually a Cosmic Horror Story. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Each of Patrick's attempts to dispell the Apparition come down to trying the same thing only with more power. Each time the Apparition just comes back stronger and more aggressive. | |

Eldritch Abomination: According to Patrick, this is what The Apparition actually is. And considering its power on the environment and the ways it likes to manifest itself, he may be most definitely right. | |
