Synopsis

The hectic seaside town of Brompton-On-Sea sizzles in the summer heatwave. Holiday makers and locals alike find distraction and amusement on the pier, where the Cranville family have owned and run the fun fair for generations.
 
The rides on offer rival any of those offered by the biggest theme parks in the country, but at a far more reasonable cost. Pete Cranville, the senior member of the clan, assures that all his attractions offer their guests true value for money.
 
The Ghost Train is a particular favourite with visitors. Located on the very edge of the pier, it might seem a little out of the way, but it is still one of the fair’s most popular rides.
 
And for those who make it out alive, it truly is a marvellous experience.

    Good Quotes from : The People From The Center of the Earth 
    "Glad you are open-minded most people just say I'm mad to believe in the star people!" said the Chicken. 
    "I believe in aliens!" said Blake. 
    "You do?" said the Chicken his eyes widening. 
    "Of course we are aliens how could I not believe in us?" said the not-so-human Blake. 
    "I am not a Flat Earther or a hollow Earther. Nobody lives in the center of any planet," said Blake. 
    "Blake the Star People are real!" said the Masked Chicken. 
    "No they aren't real still!" said Blake. 
    The Chicken pushed a News Paper at Blake. 
    "Aliens from the center of the Earth take the Human race to court for ownership of the planet!" Blake read. 
    "Did you get this made as a joke?" asked Blake. 
    "I never thought I'd say this to anyone!" Blake said, "Take me to your leader?" 
    Who are you human I don't bother my leader with the rabble," said the star person.. 
    "Because I am Alexandrite Argent the Chief Justice of Sapphirus Argent," said Blake. 
    "Whose that?" asked the star person. 
    "He's my Grandfather he's only the Emperor of the Universe!" 
    said Blake getting impatient with the star person. 
    "I will judge your case," said Blake. 
    "You are biased," said the supreme leader. 
    "Yes but without me, your case cannot be legally judged I am the only one who can judge Planetary cases," said Blake. 
    "What's wrong with him," said the supreme leader seeing Lance's Emo son. 
    "Oh him he's just the Prince of Darkness," said Lance off-handedly. 
    "Hey!" snapped the offended Emo. 
    "Why are everyone happy these strangers want to evict humans from the Earth?" Jnr asked. 
    "It's our planet!" said the Supreme Leader.

    Timothy Buchannan buys an abandoned house on the edge of an isolated village on the coast, sight unseen. When he sees the state of it he questions the wisdom of his move, but starts to renovate the house for his wife, Lauren to join him there.
    When the villagers see smoke rising from the chimney of the neglected house they are disturbed and intrigued by the presence of the incomer, intrigue that begins to verge on obsession. And the longer Timothy stays, the more deeply he becomes entangled in the unsettling experience of life in the small village.
    Ethan, a fisherman, is particularly perturbed by Timothy's arrival, but accedes to Timothy's request to take him out to sea. They set out along the polluted coastline, hauling in weird fish from the contaminated sea, catches that are bought in whole and removed from the village. Timothy starts to ask questions about the previous resident of his house, Perran, questions to which he receives only oblique answers and increasing hostility.
    As Timothy forges on despite the villagers' animosity and the code of silence around Perran, he starts to question what has brought him to this place and is forced to confront a painful truth.
    The Many is an unsettling tale that explores the impact of loss and the devastation that hits when the foundations on which we rely are swept away.
