Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Two poor, plucky teenagers (Lynne Frederick and Garry Miller) are visited by a mysterious 19th-century lawyer, Mr Blunden (Laurence Naismith), who, straight off the bat, asks the duo if they'd “be afraid to see a ghost”.

They don't seem overly fussed, so they're whisked off to a country cottage where they meet a pair of spirits, two children who died in a fire 100 years before. A creepy tale for children from 1972, which also features Diana Dors.
