Since its announcement in 2019, The Night House has been a point of interest for many horror genre fans. With the mind behind one of the more terrifying segments of V/H/S, "Amateur Night," and Netflix's haunting Norse-based adaptation of The Ritual at the helm, the bar was already set pretty high for what audiences could expect from Bruckner's return to the horror genre. Following the film's arrival at Sundance to highly positive reviews from critics, anticipation certainly went through the roof and the new trailer only sends it skyward.
Offering more glimpses of the bizarre nature of its titular location and the danger Hall's protagonist faces in the film, the new trailer for The Night House also does a solid job of reminding viewers of the praise it has received thus far. Audiences won't have to wait for long to see if it reaches their expectations as it hits theaters on August 27. Horror genre fans can also look forward to Bruckner reuniting with Collins and Piotrowski for the film reboot of Clive Barker's Hellraiser franchise at Hulu.
