CAA and Affinity are handling North American rights together. Yann Samuell is directing and the family adventure stars Jason Isaacs (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows), Kevin McKidd (Percy Jackson & The Olympians) and Emma Fielding (The Other Man).

I have never heard of this book. Is it popular? A one-off, or a series of books?
Author Eva Ibbotson has written a few children’s books (grades 3-7) in the “Dial a Ghost” series about ghosts and their comical misadventures. Here’s the plot for this particular story (courtesy of a synopsis at Amazon): “Cast out when their spooky castle gets modernized into a holiday camp, Humphrey and his ghost family search for a new home. They meet a friendly schoolboy named Rick who decides they should start a ghost sanctuary, since human expansion has ruined so many ghoulish spots in England. When the sanctuary turns out to be a trap meant to exorcise all of the ghosts, Rick and Humphrey must save the day.”
Sounds great!! Cant wait.
