A Story of Murder and Everything After
Uncork’d Entertainment is releasing The Lady of the Lake, a chilling true crime documentary from director, writer, and producer Ryan Grulich On Digital and On Demand platforms December 17.
The Lady of the Lake follows investigator Amanda Paulson and her team as they delve into the chilling case of Hallie Illingworth, a local woman who disappeared in 1937 and was found three years later in Lake Crescent under disturbing circumstances. Her body, eerily preserved with a soap-like texture, raised more questions than answers about what really happened to her. As Paulson’s team digs deeper, they uncover unsettling truths about Hallie’s tragic fate, revealing a history of violence and long-buried secrets.
The investigation leads them beyond the mystery of Hallie’s death, unraveling a web of disturbing stories that have remained hidden for decades and uncovering a horrifying truth about the lake’s dark past and the fate of those who enter its depths.
The true crime documentary combines interviews with local residents, historians, and experts to shed light on the lake’s violent history and the secrets it continues to hold. Through stunning cinematography and gripping storytelling, Grulich uncovers a long-overlooked true crime story buried beneath one of Washington State’s most stunning landmarks.
“The Lady of the Lake goes beyond traditional documentary storytelling, capturing the complexities of a story that still resonates today,” says Grulich. “Every frame is designed to intrigue and unsettle, inspired by the works of David Lynch and Truman Capote. This film invites viewers to explore Hallie Illingworth’s story with fresh eyes, uncovering the layers of mystery that continue to surround it.”
Having already captivated audiences at the Seattle International Film Festival and the Haunted House FearFest, The Lady of the Lake is set to immerse viewers in its eerie tale of death, mystery, and the unknown.
