The movie opens with Eloise (McKenzie), who dreams of the 1960s, entering fashion school in London. It’s there that she gets a chance to “travel” back in time after she finds a room in a house owned by Ms. Collins (Diana Rigg).
As she travels back in time, Eloise lives as Sandie (Anya Taylor-Joy), an aspiring nightclub singer who falls in with the manager Jack (Matt Smith).
Eloise is at first enchanted by the story, but then comes to learn that Sandie has been forced into prostitution by Jack. At one point in the past, Eloise witnesses the murder of Sandie by Jack.
Vowing to kind Jack in the present, Eloise takes on the investigation and meets a former cop from the era who was looking into vice in the 1960s. She also finds out that Sandie wasn’t murdered as she thought.
She’s shocked to find out that Ms. Collins IS Sandie!
Ms. Collins reveals to Eloise that she did die in a sense that day, and from then on, started to kill the men she was forced to sleep with and started to hide their bodies in the wall.
The ghosts that have been haunting Eloise across London are the lost souls of these dead men.
Following her confession, Eloise tries to get help and call police, but Ms. Collins tries to kill her so that she can’t tell anyone the truth.
The ending comes as Ms. Collins burns the home down, while she stays inside it.
The final scene watches as Eloise accepts everything that happened, and sees ghosts of her mom, and of Sandie, in the mirror looking back at her.
