I hadn't seen the technology connection myself until I started thinking about why the Ring is scary and Hex isn't.
Have you seen the Devil's Backbone? I think you'd like it. It's set in an isolated orphanage during the Spanish Civil War (which is unsettling enough) and the ghost is one of the creepiest ever.
I like Lugosi. But I think the book is better than any of the film or TV adaptions. I read it a few years back, expecting it to be cheesy, and was very pleasantly surprised.
