The book which was originally meant to be a picture book was on the New York Times Best Seller list for 45 weeks before finally getting to number one. The book itself is quite haunting and the so we expect the Sweeney Todd director to deliver quite efficiently.

This leads him to a home on an island that is for peculiar children. Here he meets a girl who takes him back to 1940 in a time loop to meet Miss Peregrine. In this time loop Jacob is able to see these mysterious animals called 'hollows' that are killing people (and we suspect killed his grandfather) The adventure that ensues has him fight off these hollows at the cost of the humanity of Miss Peregrine who is irreversibly turned into a bird.
