A lost teen is abandoned by his alcoholic stepfather, and spurred on a desperate search for connection within the same group he also wishes to escape from.

À la mort de son grand-père, Jacob découvre l'existence d'un monde mystérieux. Plusieurs indices le mènent dans ce lieu magique : la Maison de Miss Peregrine pour Enfants Particuliers. Mais le mystère et le danger s'amplifient quand il apprend à connaître les résidents, leurs étranges pouvoirs... et leurs puissants ennemis. Finalement, Jacob découvre que seule sa propre « particularité » peut sauver ses nouveaux amis.

BBC Children in Need is the BBC's UK charity. Since 1980 it has raised over £600 million to change the lives of disabled children and young people in the UK. One of the highlights is an annual telethon, held in November and televised on BBC One and BBC One HD from 7:30pm until 2am. "Pudsey Bear" is BBC Children in Need's mascot, whilst Terry Wogan is a long-standing host. BBC Children in Need is one of three high-profile British telethons, although the only charity belonging to the BBC, the other telethons being Red Nose Day and Sport Relief, both supporting the Comic Relief charity. The 2012 appeal took place on Friday 16 November.
