The BBC comedy 'Ghosts' returns to the big screen with its feature-length Halloween adventure 'The Possession of Button House' at Towner Cinema.
Ghosts: The Possession of Button House opens at Towner Cinema on Friday 13 November, bringing the BBC comedy back to the screen as a feature-length family adventure. It's a supernatural comic caper timed for Halloween, and it marks a reunion of the original writers and creators: Mathew Baynton, Simon Farnaby, Martha Howe-Douglas, Jim Howick, Laurence Rickard and Ben Willbond. They're joined by Lolly Adefope, Charlotte Ritchie and Kiell Smith-Bynoe, so the core group is back together for this one. The film runs an hour and 37 minutes and carries a PG rating.
If you're not familiar with the venue, Towner Cinema is an independent screen in Eastbourne, set up in 2017 with support from Arts Council England and the Eastbourne Arts Circle. It's a 4k HD setup with Dolby surround sound, and they run an eclectic mix of films alongside 'cinema plus' activities like introductions, Q&As and programme notes, with a relaxed cafe bar on site. They work with local partners including the Eastbourne Film Society, the University of Sussex's School of Media, Film and Music, Eastbourne Rainbow and the Eastbourne Cult Film Club, and they run accessible screenings including captioned, relaxed and wheelchair-accessible sessions, as well as special events for LGBTQ+ History Month and World AIDS Day. One thing to keep in mind: there are no trailers at Towner, so the advertised times are when the film actually starts.
