A fact from Ettington Park Hotel appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 5 October 2013 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that director Robert Wise personally selected Ettington Hall for exterior shots in the 1963 horror film, The Haunting?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2013/October.

Wikipedia

New source found but a few questions?

I stayed at EPH in early 2006, and picked up a wonderfully detailed information "booklet" at reception. It is entitled "The History Of Ettington Park And The Shirley Family". It is very rich in new detail, especially the early architectural changes to the buildings, etymology of the name Ettington, and details of refurbishment work carried out in the 16th, 17th 18th and 19th Century. It even gives costings. Problem is, it is literally a 12 page foolscap printed handout. There is no author, (although a fascinating addendum on the Ghosts of Ettington Hall is ascribed), no citations, obviously no ISBN, so how would one go about inserting it as a source? I am assuming "privately published" or "information booklet provided to guests, printed c 2006"? I would like to use it as it provides considerable extra detail. Any thoughts?

I think "privately published" would be ok. Sometimes, one just has to go with what's available. I'd just be cautious about using any "promotional" bits, as it's published by the hotel itself. KJP1 (talk) 10:10, 9 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
