The James Wan-produced supernatural horror flick Demonic is headed our way later this year, which was co-written by a man named Max La Bella. Today we’ve learned that La Bella has more sinister thrills and chills up his sleeve, as he next finds himself in The Devil’s Rooming House. Read on!

Deadline reports that A7SLE Films has hired La Bella to script the true story adaptation about early 20th century murderess Amy Archer-Gilligan, an unassuming nursing home proprietress who had a curiously high number of fatalities occur in her house between 1907 and 1917.

The majority of the deaths were found later to be caused by poisoning, and Archer-Gilligan was found guilty of multiple counts of murder.

A7SLE Films, the production shingle co-founded by Twilight star Peter Facinelli, snapped up rights to writer M. William Phelps’ chronicle of the Archer-Gilligan saga last year.

Facinelli and Rob DeFranco are set to produce The Devil’s Rooming House for A7SLE Films with Old Lime’s Kevin Sisti and Ray Esposito.
