Follow Sir Simon Marsden, the internationally acclaimed photographer of the fantastic and the supernatural, as he gathers fresh material for his eighth book on the supernatural.

The Twilight Hour reveals the stories behind the ill-fated castles and abandoned mausoleums, secret graves and gardens, and of the mysterious ruins and standing stones that have stood vigil through the ages across the Irish countryside, giving voices to the restless souls whose presence is both legendary and documented; the reckless child, the victim of a husband's jealous rage, the family of violent, butchering men, the simple housemaid who was terrified to death, and now returns to terrify those still living.

Director Jason Figgis joins Marsden as he intrudes on this daunting realm, interacting with tangible spirits who become almost visible as their pasts are unveiled. Meanwhile actor John Hurt adds to the macabre atmosphere with readings of Edgar Allan Poe.
