In the town of Blithe Hollow, Norman Babcock can speak to the dead, but no one other than his eccentric new friend believes his ability is real. One day, Norman's eccentric uncle tells him of a ritual he must perform to protect the town from a curse cast by a witch centuries ago.

— Critical consensus, summarised
An underrated Laika stop-motion that critics widely admired — a horror-tinged animated film that takes its bullied-protagonist's social anxiety seriously. The third-act witch reveal is a quiet stunner.
