We had a great year, a VERY successful run for HOTEL CAMARILLO since it was released in August 2014. It’s hard to believe that I began filming it in March 2012. I couldn’t imagine what the reaction would be if I wrote a “making of” HOTEL CAMARILLO book. All of the great positive reactions to the film, the wonderful people I’ve met, and the amazing investigations within the hallways of former Camarillo State Mental Hospital.
Right from the beginning of production, the documentary also unearthed the very worst in the paranormal field as well. Threatened legal actions by the self titled paranormal “elite”, sad individuals trying their hardest to shut down production multiple times for their own selfish drama soaked reasons, a D-list “paraceleb” issuing threats if we showed the documentary at Graber Con, and finally an attempt to plagiarize Hotel Camarillo by remaking it with the exact same material. A venture that has since imploded and blown away like so much desiccated canine fecal matter.
