Frightfest: An Taibhse (2024)

Marketed as the first horror film ever made in the Irish language, An Taibhse (which translates to The Ghost) arrives from writer/director John Farrelly. Set in Ireland, 1852, the story sees Éamon (Tom Kerrisk) and his daughter, Máire (Livvy Hill), arriving at a secluded Georgian mansion to fulfil a caretaker role. As they look after the grounds during the harsh winter months, what should be a peaceful assignment turns horrifying as a malevolent force awakens within the mansion’s walls.

My review of An Taibhse is now available to read at Nerdly.
