1408 centers on author, Mike Enslin (John Cusack) who, after the passing of his daughter, writes about supernatural proceedings. As you do. Despite his aptitude to write about the supernatural, however, Mike does not actually believe in the afterlife himself. After being informed about, and advised not to enter, a haunted room in The Dolphin Hotel, Mike insists on staying the night since he does not believe that anything ghostly will take place. However, to his unavoidable surprise, Mike is forced to undergo an evening of terrors. One of the most effectively hair-raising scenes of the film, features Mike trying to yell out of his window for help. He sees a man in the neighboring building and waves for assistance. However, it turns out that Mike is essentially waving to himself. Too creepy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bU1j2sjn9s8
