Curiosidades
The film is based on real events. The Case of the Talking Moongose or of the Dalby Spook really took place in the Isle of Man in the 1930. A local family, the Irvings, claimed to have a spirit in the form of a talking mongoose called Gef. The case attracted the attention of skeptics and psychics alike, but most contemporary critics agreed it was most likely a hoax.

Pifias
Twice during the movie, footage of a steam locomotive is used to depict the travel of Nandor and Anne. However, the locomotive footage used is from an American railroad, while the movie is set in the British Isles.

British steam locomotives did not feature a large headlamp or bell, as a rule. And the inclusion of the steam whistle sound is correct for a British locomotive, but wrong for the American locomotive depicted in the film.

Disappointing

This movie was barely funny and had a very thin plot. I even paid to rent it from Prime and didn't bother watching the last 30 minutes because I didn't care what happened. The actors are wasted in this. There is a summary of the Gef mongoose incident in Wikipedia. Read that if you're curious. I don't watch movies for gorgeous camera work, unfortunately, so to me this is a solid 4. I'd rather watch a gripping story on videotape. This could've been cut down to an hour, easily--not that much happens! Editing, costumes, and camera work do not make up for a poor script. If you have insomnia, this could be a good choice for you. Normally I love Simon Pegg but this was just a very boring movie. I even enjoy Jane Austen movies, and "costume dramas," as they're called, with dense dialog and no action. There was just very little to hang onto here.
