With his beloved grandfather’s riveting stories about the exceptionally gifted children known only as the “Peculiars”, ordinary Joe teenage Jake (Asa Butterfield) sets out on a journey with his father to find the mysterious Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children; a haven for all those born with unusual and extraordinary abilities.

Persecuted through the ages, the Peculiars live protected from the outside world under their Headmistress’ wing inside an enchanted and well-hidden orphanage that seems to defy the laws of time, perpetually looping the same day, every day. However, when out-of-place Jake timidly begins to realise that, in a way, he somehow fits in Miss Peregrine’s Home, strangely, his grandfather’s bedtime fables about the dangerous and terrifying creatures, the bizarre and the Peculiars, will start to feel, all of a sudden, plausible, yet dark and utterly ominous.

When Jacob (Asa Butterfield) discovers clues to a mystery that spans different worlds and times, he finds a magical place known as Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. But the mystery and danger deepen as he gets to know the residents and learns about their special powers and their powerful enemies. Ultimately, Jacob discovers that only his own special “peculiarity” can save his new friends.
