A Horror Film about Care: Review of The Haunting of Pennhurst

The Haunting of Pennhurst, which recently premiered at the 2026 Tribeca Film Festival, is a remarkable new film about disability, horror, care, and the ghosts of history.[1] It is the collaborative brainchild of three directors – Nathan R. Stenberg, Mike Attie, and Katarina Poljak – each of whom brought their own distinct perspective to this project. At once a verité ethnography, historical documentary, and deeply moving work of public scholarship shot in the style of an old Hollywood horror noir movie, the film blends different genres to interrogate the fraught history, legacy, and future of Pennhurst, a former disability institution turned haunted house, in Spring City, Pennsylvania.
