The release of Volume 2 should come this week

We have had a few set backs with the manufacturing of volume 2 but plan to get it out this week starting with Border's Books Eastgate. Our first set of volume 2 will be smaller than anticipated since we are making them ourselves. The manufacturer should have the rest out within a week. We can't wait to get them out and on the shelves and anticipate selling out at every location right away. So get there fast. I've been watching a copy this week and I know it's our best work to date and we have had alot of positive feedback from a few selected previewers. Thanks for all the support.

New host and update on the dvd

Last Monday we got some bad news Richard Crawford would not be able to host the dvd because of some health issues. So the first thing we think is Richard get better and then. What are we going to do? We have to find a new host and will we still be able to use the same stories? So then we put up a casting call out to 2 websites. So in 3 days we recieve over 50 resumes, headshots, emails and more, spanning internationally. From there we interviewed 2 based on our critieria. Today we made our decision and picked up Greg Fuller from Cincinnati. We are very happy about Greg's work ethic, enthusiaism, and ability to go beyond the norm for us. We are currently booking our agressive marketing campaign and will be wrapping up the dvd in june. The stories in this dvd will include....The Lofts

Owensville Town Hall

Westwood Town Hall

Hawk's Taverne at the Mill

The Olde Trail Tavern

Viola (a residience in cincinnati)

We expect a very strong sales season in sept thru decemeber. Thanks for all the support.

Ghosts are back in ohio

Dark Figure Productions creeps into Cincinnati
2-26-2007
Cincinnati, OH

Even though the Halloween season has passed, Dark Figure Productions continues to emerge on the independent film scene. Border's Books of Eastgate did not have a local section that included DVDs, until Dark Figure Productions approached them. "True Ghost Stories from Ohio with Richard Crawford" was the very first local DVD to appear on their shelves in September of 2006. Recently they also became the first local DVD to show up on the shelves of Joseph Beth book stores in Cincinnati. Both of these stores are known for their local CD sections but had never taken a chance on a local DVD until now. For 2007 they will be on the road, tracking down more of Ohio's true ghost stories for the second volume. Beginning in February Dark Figure Productions will be covering such sites as: Hawk's Taverne at the Mill in Lancaster, Westwood Town Hall in Cincinnati, Olde Trail Taverne in Yellow Springs, The Moonville Tunnel in Vinton County as well as many others. For more information go to www.darkfigureproductions.com.
On Febuary 19th Dark Figure Productions arrived at Hawk's Taverne at the Mill beginning production of their highly anticipated volume two. Have you ever heard the story of the killer calling from inside the house? During filming there was a phone call from inside the taverne to the taverne while all employees were in plain sight. Numerous hauntings occur at Hawk's, from phone calls, to flying pool balls when nobody is there and a mysterious man in brown. A bartender there spoke of an odd occurance with this man/being. He was filling a picture of beer for this man and having a conversation about one of the bar maids lasting most of the night. When he mentioned it to the other employees and patrons of the bar nobody claimed to see this man at any point during the night. The man knew details about the bar maid that nobody could have known that didn't work in the bar. He promptly left for the night and after a few weeks of coercing returned to work. This is one of many true ghost stories from the buckeye state.
This Halloween season look out for the ghost that might just be in your town. For more information go to www.darkfigureproductions.com.

Another story features the most haunted place in all of Ohio, Deadmans’ Curve, at the intersection of state route 125 and 222- home of the Faceless Hitchhiker. This intersection has resulted in over 70 deaths since 1969. The Faceless Hitchhicker was also featured in the Haunted Ohio book series and the Weird Ohio book.
The scariest part of this documentary is that all the stories are true. The host is a well versed historian who quite easily backs up all the stories with documented information taken from the local historical society. The DVD is available online at filmbaby.com -do a search for "true ghost," and is also available in Border’s Books locations in Eastgate. You can contact the filmmakers through their website at www.darkfigureproductions.com or at darkfigureproductions@yahoo.com. Ohio the heart of it all. Perhaps we should change it to Ohio the haunt of it all.
