The Haunted Doll's House is based on the short story by M.R. James and tells the tale of a ghostly antique. Adapted by Stephen Gray, who has made several other short films based upon James' work, it stars Steven Dolton as Mr. Dillet. Made on an extremely modest budget over the course of 2012 this clever, innovative and rather sinister adaptation is a fine example of short film creativity. It manages to offer a unique visual depiction of M.R. James’ classic story whilst capturing the unsettling quality of the authors work. Like so many independently made short films it is clearly a labour of love and thoroughly rewarding.
