Eight short tales of ghostly encounters through the decades at the legendary Great White Horse Hotel in Ipswich. Since 1518, the premises have offered a night's rest to such diverse luminaries as Charles Dickens, George II and the Beatles. The Haunted Hotel brings together eight tales of ghostly encounters, by turns spooky, comic, humorous and horrifying, all taking place among the rooms and corridors of this notoriously eerie establishment. 1924 - The Contraption. A ghost-hunter meets her match when she tries to use the latest technology to detect the presence of unquiet spirits. 1973 - The Writer. A novelist seeks inspiration for his next bestseller but finds his mind unravelling as his work turns into a dangerous obsession. 1836 - Watching. Charles Dickens has an unexpected encounter during a sleepless night in the regions, reporting for a newspaper on a local election. 1952 - Room 27B. Young lovers find their plans for tryst thrown into confusion when they take a wrong turn within..
The Haunted Hotel drew
filmmakers and creatives from all over East Anglia (UK) to the Great White Horse Hotel in Ipswich to
create a portmanteau feature film with a truly local, independent spirit (no pun intended).
A once-grand hotel that was name-checked by Charles Dickens in 'The Pickwick Papers', the
now-abandoned building provided the blank (and rather dilapidated) canvas for 8 original tales from
local writers who responded to FILM Suffolk's callout for ghost story scripts.
With plots set across 8 different eras spanning over 150 years, the production design and costuming
challenge of bringing The Haunted Hotel to life was immense. When it came to production, the film
was shot in two intense 5-day shooting blocks, with multiple productions working side-by-side within
the catacomb corridors and rooms of the hotel.
Established stars such as Reece Ritchie (The Lovely Bones, Hercules) and Hugh Fraser (renowned
as Cpt. Hastings alongside David Suchet's Poirot for many years) worked alongside a whole host of
brilliant cast and crew to bring to life the vision of our 8 segment directors (including Jane Gull,
director of indie hit 'My Feral Heart').
