Poltergeist 1982

Poltergeist is undoubtedly one of the best ghost stories committed to film. Heck it ranks right on up there as a all time classic horror flick. But as far as the Arbor Day connection--well it's bit thin. But that tree....oh that tree! It's a great ploy of the spirits to "possess" the creepy tree that just happens to be outside Robbie and Carol Anne's bedroom during a very scary storm. The tree, of course, scoops Robbie up and hauls him outside into the lightening--all the while, Carol Anne is the real object of ghostly desire. Robbie's "tree predicament" leaves little Carol Anne all along in the house, giving the evil spirit that covets her the perfect window to kidnap her into the netherworld. The storm is getting closer...Robbie
