This haunting narrative inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s timeless tales introduces viewers to Mr. Wallace, a mysterious character played by the talented Nigel Barber. Wallace’s journey begins in a peculiar rummage shop where he discovers an ancient 78 record. Little does he know, playing this record will unlock a ghostly world teeming with dark secrets and spectral encounters.
