What happens
Supernatural is a 1933 American pre-Code supernatural horror film directed by Victor Halperin, and starring Carole Lombard, Alan Dinehart, Vivienne Osborne, Randolph Scott, and H. B. Warner. The film follows a woman who attends a staged séance only to find herself possessed by the spirit of an executed murderess. The film was the followup to Halperin's White Zombie and uses many members of the crew from that film in its production. Trouble grew on the set between Carole Lombard and the director as Lombard felt she was more suited for comedy films. Tensions on the set were compounded by the 1933 Long Beach earthquake, which temporarily stopped production. The film was not as financially successful as White Zombie on its initial release, though it did attain a cult following in the decades after its release. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
