A writer’s life is saved by a mysterious disfigured stranger

This Victorian inspired modern-day supernatural film noir is set against the backdrop of Whitechapel, mediums and the work of supposed pagan architect Nicholas Hawksmoor. The scene in which Nick Moran is saved from falling under a train was filmed at Essex Road station on the Moorgate-Drayton Park underground line, formerly part of London Transport’s Northern Line. There are some good shots of Class 313 EMU’s in these scenes.
