The Spiderwick Chronicles follows the coming-of-age story of the Grace Family, as they move from New York to Michigan and into their family’s ancestral home. Upon arrival, the family not only uncovers mysteries hidden inside their great grandfather’s Spiderwick Estate, but also discovers a secret, fantastical world around them.
Watched the #Shooter TV series & loved the former Marine sniper framed for murder and out for justice storyline. The 2007 movie is just as action-packed and engaging.
