Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children was not only one of the spookiest films of the year, it also transported viewers to another world. (Um, can you tell that the movie was directed by Tim Burton?) The producers and other creatives EXCLUSIVELY opened up about how they created such a magical world based off of Ransom Riggs' book of the same name.

Tim said, "I like the fact that [Ransom] made a story out of all these photographs, which I love. I collect photographs and things. I love the fact that you can see an image, and it tells you a story without telling you everything."

Definitely agree with that!
