I liked this little film very much! What are others in the same genre (films where the dead presence of children now gone inhabit the lives of those still living.)
The Sweet Hereafter (1997)
Rabbit Hole (2010)
Gone Baby Gone (2007)
oh wait, there's an IMDB list devoted to this topic here:

The Orphanage http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0464141/
The Lovely Bones http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0380510/
The Sweet Hereafter and Lovely Bones are good. I was gonna recommend a lifetime movie, Face on the Milk Carton.
