Overview

Mysterious old solicitor Mr. Blunden visits Mrs. Allen and her young children in their squalid, tiny Camden Town flat and makes her an offer she cannot refuse. The family become the housekeepers to a derelict country mansion in the charge of the solicitors. One day the children meet the spirits of two other children who died in the mansion nearly a hundred years prior. The children prepare a magic potion that allows them to travel backwards in time to the era of the ghost children. Will the children be able to help their new friends and what will happen to them if they do?

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A gently spooky Victorian time-travel adventure where contemporary children befriend ghostly counterparts from a century past and attempt to change tragic history. It's equal parts cosy mystery and touching exploration of second chances, with genuine stakes underneath the whimsy.
