FamilyAnimationAdventureComedy
In the town of Blithe Hollow, Norman Babcock can speak to the dead, but no one other than his eccentric new friend believes his ability is real. One day, Norman's eccentric uncle tells him of a ritual he must perform to protect the town from a curse cast by a witch centuries ago.
VIBE
This film offers a charmingly spooky, yet deeply empathetic journey. It feels like a lovingly crafted stop-motion fable, blending gothic whimsy with genuine heart. Expect a steady pace that allows its quirky characters and themes of acceptance to resonate, all wrapped in a visually distinctive, slightly eerie package.
