Film nomenclature confusion
[edit]In the section entitled Film inspiration it says the following:
the house the film centers on is called the "Cheesman" House, a nod to the Denver inspiration.
There's a few things going on here.
- The name from the film is actually "The Chessman House" (not "The Cheesman House")
- The company that produced the film is named "Chessman Park Productions" (again, not "Cheesman Park Productions")
Source: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080516
Famously indeed, the movie is based on an anecdotal account of a house near Denver's "Cheesman" Park, as the article already states. But I don't know whether the name from the movie was just changed to "Chessman" for dissociation purposes or whether it's an unlikely coincidence, so I'm not sure what edit to make to the article. Similarly I don't know the history of the production company's name.

Yes, Cheesman Park is reportedly haunted
[edit]... and the stories about desecration of bodies at the park is also true.
