The three-part “The Enfield Haunting” kicks off tonight on A&E with Episode 1.01, “The Awakening,” and we have a short video to share in which the cast and creative team behind the UK miniseries describe the show and its appeal.
The stellar cast is comprised of Timothy Spall, OBE, recently bestowed the Best Actor accolade at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival for his role in Mike Leigh’s Mr. Turner, BAFTA-winning actor Matthew Macfadyen, and BAFTA-nominated actress Juliet Stevenson. They are joined by Olivier Award-winning young actress Eleanor Worthington-Cox in the lead role of Janet Hodgson, the youngest daughter of Peggy Hodgson, played by British actress Rosie Cavaliero.
Macfadyen portrays Playfair, an experienced investigator who approaches the case with skepticism. Following a personal tragedy, Maurice (Spall) is drawn to the house in Enfield after disturbing reports of a desperate family terrorized by malevolent unseen forces. Working together to get to the heart of the supernatural happenings, Maurice and Guy find that they cannot save the tortured family without first coming to terms with their own demons.
Kristoffer Nyholm, widely acclaimed for his work on the global hit drama “The Killing,” directed from Joshua St. Johnston’s screenplay.
