TO make these holidays more fun for the entire family, Quest Community News is giving away $5,000 worth of movie tickets to The House with a Clock in Its Walls.

In the tradition of Amblin Entertainment classics where fantastical and magical events occur in the most familiar of places, The House with a Clock in Its Walls is set to appear in a cinema near you.

Ten-year-old Lewis Barnavelt (Owen Vaccaro), recently orphaned and sent to live with his eccentric Uncle Jonathan (Jack Black), has discovered a hidden world of magic, mystery and supernatural menace — and it’s all in his sleepy little town.

When Lewis arrives in a new city to live with Uncle Jonathan in a creaky old mansion, he discovers a curious house full of secrets — chief amongst them an incessant tick-tocking coming from somewhere in the house…

He’s not sure which is more astonishing: the wondrous, sprawling mansion…or his oddball Uncle Jonathan and Jonathan’s best friend, verbal sparring partner and neighbor Mrs. Zimmerman (two-time Academy Award® winner Cate Blanchett).

If adjusting to a new school and new friends weren’t enough to deal with in this unexpected new life, Lewis’ entire world turns upside down when he discovers Uncle Jonathan and Mrs. Zimmerman are both powerful practitioners of the magic arts.

Lewis is now caught up in something equally magical and wild with a warlock and a witch — who are on a secret mission to discover the source and the meaning of a foreboding ticking doomsday clock…hidden away somewhere within the house’s walls!

All of this, plus deadly curses, attacking jack-o’-lanterns, endless hours of homework, and an evil wizard who has returned from the grave? Lewis’ new life is more than enough for any clever and cunning 10-year-old to juggle.

As a lost orphan transforms into powerful young wizard, he won’t only have the adventure of a lifetime… he’ll help heal two very broken people and allow them to rediscover their magic.

The House with a Clock in Its Walls opens on September 20.
