Details

Celebrated children's author Edith Nesbit escapes her annual Christmas Eve soiree and finds herself in her attic writing room with a young male guest and Biddy Thricefold, her loyal housekeeper. The trio decide to observe the festive tradition of reading scary stories to help ward off wicked spirits, choosing the stories penned by Nesbit herself. Yet as they breathe life into these terrifying creations, all is not as it seems... One of the people in the attic is hiding a deadly secret. Forget sweet Christmas treats and instead be chilled to the bone by vampire plants, a zombie bridegroom and spectral dancers.
