It was a tight race all weekend, but Chronicle - the found footage thriller - came out on top at the box office with $22 million.  That's an impressive debut for newcomer director Joshua Trank and stars Dane DeHaan, Michael B. Jordan and Alex Russell.

Could a sequel follow?  It's possible.  Trank and writer Max Landis have a trilogy envisioned.  

After the jump, find out how The Woman in Black - another film which made its debut this weeked - fared.

CBS Films raked in $21 million with its spookshow starring Daniel Radcliffe.  The film, however, came in second place.  Still not shabby.

Last week's number one flick, The Grey, slipped to number three, grossing $9.5 million in its second weekend.
