The BBC comedy series about ghosts in a crumbling manor returns to the big screen in this feature film adaptation.
Ghosts: The Possession of Button House opens at Hyde Park Picture House on Friday 23 October, with screenings running through to Thursday 29 October. It's the big-screen adaptation of the BBC comedy series about a group of ghosts inhabiting a crumbling country manor and its new living owners, who dream of a beautiful renovation. The show has built a following on the small screen, and this takes it to the cinema for one final adventure.
Simon Hynd directs, with Mathew Baynton, Simon Farnaby and Martha Howe-Douglas returning to the roles they've played throughout the series. It runs for 1 hour and 37 minutes, so it's a proper feature rather than a short. The screening sits within the cinema's 'Spooky Season' and 'Bring Your Own Baby' strands, which means you can bring the little ones along if that's your situation.
If you've followed the series, you know the setup: a house full of ghosts from different eras, all stuck in the same place, and the living family who move in and try to make a home of it. The comedy comes from the clash between them, and this film brings that dynamic to the big screen. It's a good shout for a late October outing, especially with the 'Spooky Season' framing.
