Rose Red (2002)

Rose Red (2002) is a television miniseries based on an original script by Stephen King, known for his mastery of horror.

Directed by Craig R. Baxley, this supernatural thriller blends mystery, terror, and a haunted house narrative, making it a unique entry in King’s extensive collection of works.

The story revolves around a group of psychics and paranormal experts who are invited to investigate a notorious mansion, Rose Red, which has a dark and twisted history.

The house, located in Seattle, is known for its strange occurrences, mysterious disappearances, and violent past. The estate is massive, yet strangely larger than it seems, almost as if it’s alive and growing.

The central character, Dr. Joyce Reardon (played by Nancy Travis), a parapsychologist, assembles a team of psychics, including the telekinetic protagonist, Sara (played by Kimberly J. Brown), to uncover the truth about the house’s evil powers. They are drawn into the mansion by the promise of Sara’s abilities, which could help them unlock the secrets of Rose Red.
