While staying at a hotel in England with his grandmother, Helga, a young boy named Luke inadvertently spies on a convention of witches. The Grand High Witch reveals a plan to turn all children into mice via a magical formula. When they discover the eavesdropper, the witches test the formula on him. Now, with the help of Helga and hotel manager Mr Stringer, Luke the mouse must fight back against the witches.
A children's story with real teeth, this one traffics in the specific terror of adults who are not what they seem. The grand reveal of what lurks beneath polite faces is pure practical-effects nightmare fuel, calibrated to unsettle the young and haunt the grown. Whimsy and dread hold hands, then squeeze.
