Claire De Lune 🌙’s review published on Letterboxd:
"No jokes please about my ion for spirits" [smug mode]
I always felt like Eleanor when watching this before though I always WANTED to be Theo.
"What does he think of me really? Am I being a fool? Don't let me know too surely what he thinks of me"
Nell is super-perceptive/sensitive to feelings and vibrations while Theo is more direct and precise with her bolt-out-of-the-blue ESP (keep your hands to yourself!)
"A closed mind is the worst defence...you're liable to have that shut door in your mind ripped right off it's hinges."
I LOVE all the people coming together in a haunted house, it's so exciting and the start of SOMETHING. Maximum scares with minimal effects, most of it is done with facial expressions and bodily movements.
The book is like poetry, I'd definitely recommend a read if you get the time.
Currently on BBC iPlayer so everyone go fuck the shit out of it with your eyes (um ur, yeah!) while you can. 👀
