Haunted by Murder

I love all the Aurora Teagarden Mysteries & this one was no different. I have just treated myself to the previous 17 on DVD! I hope they continue to make more. I must say that Niall Matter was unrecognisable - the beard & dyed hair looked so false - it was like Aurora was married to a different man!

7/10 - if I'm honest many of the latest Aurora Teagarden mysteries have teetered on bland, but this one provides a nice, new jolt of life into the series thanks to an interesting parapsychology-centered plot and a genuinely well-written mystery.

This Aurora Teagarden movie definitely had a scarier, creepy vibe to it compared to the other Aurora movies, which I would consider "cozy mysteries". With that being said, I still liked it. I liked that this mystery involved a lot of the cast. I loved the cameos of Candace and Lexa's daughters as Teen Aurora and Teen Sally. The ratings were also very favorable. I wonder along with others if this will end up being the last Aurora movie or if more will be coming.

I am a little confused though, I thought Candace walked away from Hallmark to the new knock off network that was more on her moral compass? Anyway the story line was pretty good and yes shout outs to the daughters playing the past characters.

My biggest beef though was the house. That did not have the feel of a house that had been abandoned for decades. Maybe the secret hidden room with the cobwebs and the old stuff.

The house was gorgeous!

And the makeup director should be fired from any other show. What the heck was wrong with Niall's beard?

I wonder how many more Murder Mysteries Hallmark allow Candace to come back to?

Love love Niall Matter but that longer dyed hair and beard on a thinner Nick looks awful. He is unrecognizable. I love his handsome other and unshaven fuller face.
