Title
Casting the Runes
Description
Meet Mr Karswell, ‘The Abbot of Lufford’ – magic lanternist, historian of the occult, and scourge of the academic establishment. Casting the Runes is one of M R James’s most admired tales. Now it has been brought to thrilling life in this new collaboration between Nunkie and ThomThom Films. Filmed in one take by the light of a single candle, this is storytelling at its most stark and effective.
So pour yourself a glass of something comforting, draw the curtains and enjoy one of the eeriest stories ever told…
Bonus feature: An rehearsed reading by Robert Lloyd Parry of A Vignette, M R James's final, posthumously published piece of supernatural writing.
