Well, the book's cover does look a lot like the movie cover, so I can easily understand why people would think they're the same story. So did I. Most of his books has some pretty cool cover artworks, I must say.

I managed to find the mini series The Secret of Crickley Hall and started on the first episode, but as I was working on something at the same time it just got to play in the background. Very few scenes in this first episode made me turn around out of interest, so I'll have to give it another try some other day, coz the story sounds right up my alley.
