Paranormal Activity on DVD and Blu-ray

One of the most successful independent horror films of all time, Paranormal Activity has taken the world by storm grossing nearly $150,000,000.

Based on true events, this frightening and supernatural film portrays the story of Katie and Micah, a carefree couple who become haunted by an unseen presence in their house. They decide to investigate the increasingly bizarre and escalating intrusions by setting up a video camera to capture evidence of the demonic presence in their house, only to find much more than they ever imagined.
