BURG SCHRECKENSTEIN

Oliver Hassencamp’s best-selling children’s book series Burg Schreckenstein (known in English as The Gang from Shiverstone Castle) is now being adapted for the big screen with director Ralf Huettner making his first outing into the family entertainment genre.

It’s a big shock for 11-year-old Stephan when his mother sends him off to the all-boys boarding school at Burg Schreckenstein.

The girls plan revenge, but events develop in a quite unexpected direction...
