Scripted by the co-writer of Guillermo Del Toro's The Devil's Backbone, Whispers in the Walls offers an intelligent, well-conceived gothic fantasy tale. After the brutal murder of her parents, Sarah ends up in ancient Czech children's hospital that houses orphans. Whispers from emerge from within the old walls lead the young girl into the nightmarish two millennium battle between monsters and men. Perhaps the only major flaw in the near-perfect story set in 1949 is the repeated comments referring to a recent Nazi attack. Thankfully the ideal illustrations by the extraordinary Tirso successfully obscure any script deficiencies. The engaging Whispers in the Walls delivers enough eerie moments to satisfy most fans of the genre.
