Typically British supernatural film vibe in the humour and the touches of pathos throughout.
Not scary per se but thoroughly entertaining throughout.
Fantastic acting too.

Great atmosphere, terrific setting and spooky fun. I love the bite-size segments that covered a range of different horror styles. Entertaining from beginning to end. I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Don't watch this if you're looking for scares. If you want to be entertained for an hour or so, give it a go. The acting is good as are the storylines. Nice short little segments.
An enjoyable series of linked stories set in a real Ipswich hotel. The stories vary from the atmospheric, to more spooky with some gentle British humour in between.
I enjoyed this collection of short films. They aren't overly dark or cynical. The stories aren't necessarily scary but they do range from being fun, to poignant to creepy. "The Writer" and "40 Years" were my favorites. Overall, the acting is consistent with the overall tone and "spirit" of the films. What I found impressive is that each film took place during a different time period but within the same location; the lighting, production design and costumes all tied the different time periods together nicely while grounding them all within the hotel. I definitely recommend this to viewers who enjoy a good-natured spooky film.

- TriviaThe film was shot entirely on location at the (now closed) Great White Horse Hotel in Ipswich, UK, which dates back at least as far as the 17th century. The quote at the beginning of the film which begins "Never was such labyrinths..." is taken from Charles Dickens' novel 'The Pickwick Papers', and is directly referencing the hotel.
- Alternate versionsThe UK release was cut, the distributor requested cuts in order to obtain their preferred classification. Images of strong injury detail were removed in order to obtain a 12A classification. An uncut 18 classification was available.
