Synopsis
Cut off from the
TARDIS, the Doctor and Leela find themselves stranded on a small
island. But they are not alone. It is 1907, and members
of the Caversham Society have gathered on the hundredth anniversary
of the death of Mannering Caversham, the greatest Magic Lanternist
who ever lived.
But Caversham was
also a supernaturalist who claimed to have conjured up a demon from
the depths of hell. As people start to die, the Doctor begins to
wonder if Caversham’s story might have more than a grain of truth
in it. Can the Doctor and Leela discover what really happened to
Caversham a century ago? And if they do, will they live to
tell the tale..?
