A Ghost Story for Christmas: Lot No. 249
Overview
It’s 1881, and Old College, Oxford plays host to three very different academics. Abercrombie Smith is a model of Victorian manhood, clean of limb and sound of mind. Monkhouse Lee is a delicate and unworldly student from Thailand. And occupying the rooms between them is the strange and exotic Edward Bellingham, whose unnatural researches into the secrets of ancient Egypt are the talk of the college. Can Bellingham’s experiments truly bring the breath of life to the horrifying bag of bones that is the mysterious Lot No 249?

Remember “Tales of the Unexpected”? Well I thought this a bit like one of these editions as “Smith” (Kit Harrington) starts to suspect that his fellow Oxford University student “Bellingham” (Freddie Fox) is using a particularly unique method to rid himself of his romantic rivals. He regales his suspicions to their new friend “Lee” (Colin Ryan) but even if these were to be true, how on earth could he ever prove that an ostensibly harmless relic from ancient Egypt might have the powers of Christop…
