Poirot - Hallowe’en Party: Filmed as A Haunting in Venice (Poirot)

By Agatha Christie

Trick or treat?

No one believes Joyce Reynolds when she boasts she once witnessed a murder. Until, that is, she is found drowned, face down in an apple-bobbing tub. What exactly was it she saw?

Then the victim’s brother is found drowned too, and the mysteries multiply.

Hercule Poirot and Ariadne Oliver must race to get at the truth, and prevent further tragedy.

Agatha Christie was born in Torquay in 1890 and became, quite simply, the best-selling novelist in history. Her first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, written towards the end of the First World War, introduced us to Hercule Poirot, who was to become the most popular detective in crime fiction since Sherlock Holmes. She is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her books have sold over a billion copies in the English language and another billion in over 100 foreign languages. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 24 plays, and six novels under the name of Mary Westmacott.
