    Where to Watch

Lynne Frederick and Garry Miller portray youngsters who travel back in time to aid ghosts from 1818. Blunden: Laurence Naismith. Sarah: Rosalyn Landor. Mrs. Wickens: Diana Dors. George: Marc Granger. Uncle Bertie: James Villiers. Directed by Lionel Jeffries ("The Railway Children").

Extremely confused story about a ghost who employs a widow with two young children to take over his abandoned country mansion where the children meet two ghost children and through them solve an ancient mystery. Too scary for children and too befuddling for the average viewer to sort out. Most of the responsibility for this disjointed film rests with director Jeffries, whose cuts and point of view are confusing, as is the script.
