Ever since it was announced on the day before Halloween last year, the Lady in White (1988) Blu-ray has been highly anticipated by fans of the cult classic. Originally scheduled to come out this spring before being slated for a June 21st debut, Scream Factory has now announced a later release date for the Blu-ray, although it sounds like it will be well worth the wait.
Scream Factory revealed on Facebook that the Lady in White Blu-ray is now set to hit shelves on August 30th. The film's writer and director, Frank LaLoggia, is helping to prep the home media release and some extra time is needed to get the best possible version ready for fans.
Below, we have the official announcement from Scream Factory, as well as the synopsis and trailer for those unfamiliar with the Halloween horror film.
From Scream Factory: "We wanted to let you know that the street date for the LADY IN WHITE Blu-ray has changed. The product will now be released on August 30th.
The director of the film is heavily involved in the release (always a good thing) and we need a little more time to put together some unique added value that he has offered to help with creating. As always, we want to be sure that the product will be the best it can be. We regret delaying the release again, but we want it to be right.
More info will be posted here in early Summer as this release develops. We think you will be very pleased with the results and we appreciate your understanding.

Synopsis: "The ghosts of the dead can't rest without the help of the living in this terrifying horror film that's "one of the most intelligent and riveting ghost stories since Poltergeist" (LA Weekly). Starring Lukas Haas (Inception, Transcendence), Len Cariou (Blue Bloods), Alex Rocco (The Godfather) and Katherine Helmond (Soap, Who's the Boss), Lady In White is presented here in both its director's cut and the never-before-released extended director's cut.
Frankie Scarlatti (Haas) lives in a small town with a deadly secret. For a decade, a serial child killer has eluded police, and the death toll continues to rise. Then, one night Frankie gets locked in his school and witnesses the ghost of the first victim being murdered. Now, aided by the girl's restless spirit, Frankie takes it upon himself to bring her assailant to justice. But in a town with no strangers, the killer may be closer than he knows."
