Screenwriter and author Frank De Felitta, who wrote the 1975 bestselling horror novel Audrey Rose "because, he said, he suspected that his own son might be channeling a dead pianist," died March 29, the New York Times reported. He was 94. The book, which was adapted into a 1977 movie starring Anthony Hopkins and Marsha Mason, sold some 3.5 million copies in paperback. De Felitta's other books include For Love of Audrey Rose, The Entity, Golgotha Falls and Sea Trial.
