Before Christmas, the lawyer Zara is given an important assignment by her boss that must be completed before the holidays. To lighten things up, her colleague has bought tickets to a Victorian dinner held in a historic building, knowing how much Zara loves Dickens. During the visit, she happens to meet Rafe, an contractor who works in renovations and whose family once owned the Victorian house. Zara then begins to experience a series of strange incidents influenced by the house’s ghosts, giving her repeated reasons to hire Rafe to fix one thing after another.
The idea of ghosts means the film is working uphill from the very start. Add to that the rather cheap-looking 19th-century costumes typical of these films, and a Chad Rook (as Rafe) who can’t act, at least not as a romantic interest, and the whole dish ends up rather bland.
