In the darkness of night, magic awaits... Nottingham, 1906. Marietta Stelle dreams of being a ballerina, but as Christmas approaches, her dancing days are numbered; she must marry and embrace her societal role in the New Year. The arrival of a mysterious toymaker, Dr. Drosselmeier, who purchases a neighboring townhouse, brings magic and wonder into Marietta's life. He constructs an elaborate theatrical set for her final ballet performance on Christmas Eve, revealing a magic darker than she could imagine. When the clock strikes midnight, Marietta is transported from her family's ballroom to a frozen sugar palace, shrouded in secrets within a forest of snow-topped fir trees. She must navigate this enchanting realm and find a way back home before she becomes trapped in Everwood's spell forever. In the darkness of night, magic awaits, leaving an unforgettable impression.
