Description

Spooky Encounters of the Sad Kind is a mockumentary comedy-mystery short set during a rainy London autumn, following amateur filmmaker Liz as she documents strange disturbances in her new apartment. She soon finds the culprit in the shy and gentle ghost, Toast, and an unexpected friendship begins to form, but as Liz digs deeper into Toast’s past, she finds more than either of them is ready for. Blending humour and silliness with darker, existential themes, Spooky Encounters of the Sad Kind explores the human need to be seen, in life and beyond.
