What Is Hallmark’s A Fabled Holiday About?

According to the Hallmark synopsis, “Talia (D’Orsay) and her childhood best friend Anderson (Paevey) delight in the pages of A Wunderbrook Christmas Story, in which a town full of Christmas spirit restores its visitors during their times of deep turmoil.”

Now, it is years later. Talia is a writer who has had long-term writer’s block. Can she get her writing habit back in order? Or is it time to figure out what she can do next in her life?

Both childhood friends could benefit from the restoration described in their favorite childhood book.

“They unexpectedly reunite in a curiously similar-looking town depicted in the book they loved, along with widower Charles (Prowse) and soon-to-be-divorced couple, Keith (Attar) and Diane (Amit).”

“The local townspeople, led by Judy  (Greenwood) and Miles (Murphy), worry they may not fulfill their mission in time for the closing Night of Wunder event this year, putting access to the secretly magical town in jeopardy.”
