Opening in theaters on February 3rd is the new horror film from director Ti West (The House of the Devil) called The Innkeepers. Set in a haunted inn on its final weekend before going out of business, the movie stars Sara Paxton (Shark NIght 3D), Pat Healy (Dirty Girl), Lena Dunham (Tiny Furniture), and Kelly McGillis (Top Gun).
IAR's Managing Editor Jami Philbrick recently had an opportunity to sit down and speak with director Ti West, as well as actress Sara Paxton about The Inkeepers. The duo spoke openly about the new movie, West's goal to make a "charming ghost story," casting Paxton in her role, what it was like for the actress to play a nerdy character for a change, "going Costanza," and what it was like for both of them to shoot a haunted house movie in an actual real-life haunted house.

SYNOPSIS:
After over one hundred years of service, The Yankee Pedlar Inn is shutting its doors for good. The last remaining employees - Claire (Paxton) and Luke (Healy) - are determined to uncover proof of what many believe to be one of New England's most haunted hotels. As the Inn's final days draw near, odd guests check in as the pair of minimum wage "ghost hunters" begin to experience strange and alarming events that may ultimately cause them to be mere footnotes in the hotel's long unexplained history.
The Innkeepers starts haunting theaters on February 3rd!
