The original book is a collection of 10 stories having to do with supernatural elements and children, so you know it’s gotta be hardcore, right? Girls with parents who are werewolves, kids who like to hang out at graveyards, a boy who has premonitions of others’ deaths at summer camp, and so on and so forth. If you’re 9, you may have already read this book and you might have gotten a kick out of it. But for the rest of us? Not sure if there’s that same appeal.
No word on the ins and outs of the film version, no writer has been hired to adapt the novel into script-form yet, nor has there been a director named. Just the rights purchased. For a book featuring creepy supernatural stuff aimed at kids. But hey, DeLaurentis produces some pretty awesome stuff so maybe a flick like this just needs his touch to rock the house down. If that’s possible. Stick around for more on ST. LUCY’S HOME FOR GIRLS RAISED BY GIRLS as we hear it!
