Hallowe'en Party: Inspiration for the 20th Century Studios Major Motion Picture A Haunting in Venice
Description
Enjoy Agatha Christie’s beloved classic, Hallowe’en Party—the inspiration for the major motion picture A Haunting in Venice, directed by and starring Kenneth Branagh—with a new introduction by Michael Green, screenwriter of the film.
When a Halloween party turns deadly, it falls to Hercule Poirot to unmask a murderer.
At a Halloween party, Joyce—a surly thirteen-year-old—boasts that she once witnessed a murder. When no one believes her, she storms off home. But within hours her body is found, still in the house, drowned in an apple-bobbing tub.
Famed detective Hercule Poirot is called in to investigate. Set against a night of trickery and the occult, it’s up to Poirot to uncover the real evil presence responsible for this ghastly deed.
- A great read for spooky-season nights
- A perfect addition to any Halloween reading list
