Disney Channel's mystery adventure special "Evermoor" follows Tara Crossley, an American teen and aspiring mystery writer who, along with her newly blended family, has just moved into an old family mansion in Evermoor, a beautiful but isolated village on the edge of some very creepy moors in middle England.
This is the first time the Crossley family - Tara's
mother, Fiona; her younger brother, Jake; and new British step-dad, Rob; as well as step-siblings, Seb and Bella - are living under the same roof together. Adjusting to life as a new family in a new home, while making friends amongst the strange villagers of Evermoor, including the elusive Circle of Everines, is not without its troubles.
The family inherited Evermoor Manor from their Aunt Bridget after she passed away. Filled with hidden passageways, countless dark corridors, secret rooms with forgotten family treasures, the estate is a mysterious and magical place.
While the impetuous Tara and practical Seb are surprised to find they get along, the promising author clashes regularly with Bella, who misses her posh city life. Tensions escalate between the two step-sisters as they compete for the affection of handsome delivery boy Cameron. Jake, the youngest of the Crossley clan, takes to Evermoor rather quickly. A natural born practical joker, he teams up with local quirky kid Ludo, who shares his love for the supernatural and playing jokes on his siblings.
A series of mysterious incidents unfurl at Evermoor Manor after Tara discovers a magical typewriter and an ancient tapestry that possesses the power to predict the future. Tended to by the Circle of Everines and its formidable leader, Esmerelda, the tapestry has shaped the events of the village for centuries and now threatens the Crossley family. Tara and her step-brother, Seb, must work together to solve the mystery of the tapestry and save their family and new home.
