Full Plot Details

An amateur archaeologist, Mr Paxton (Peter Vaughan), travels to the coastal Norfolk town of Seaburgh. His research has uncovered an old Anglo-Saxon legend telling of three fabled crowns that protect England from invasion. One is said to have been lost in a war, a second lost to the sea - but the third is thought to be hidden somewhere near Seaburgh. Paxton checks into a local inn where, despite the suspicions of the locals, he hears that another archaeologist searching for the crown was found dead more than a decade ago. His inquiries lead him to the grave of a local man, William Ager who was said to be the last of his line and a guardian of the crown. Paxton goes to search the woods near Ager's former home but his excavations will unearth something more than the fabled crown.

User Review - 10/10 by Richard Cwrap up warm this xmas because this will send chills down your spine.available on dvd.M.R.James rocks.
User Review - 8/10 by Sanjid PThis is a very fine BBC's TV adaptation of a M.R. James story. Though only 50 minutes long but there are some pretty effectively creepy set pieces. Highly recommended to those who love old fashioned atmospheric ghost stories.
