The Boogeyman Trailer Brings One of Stephen King’s Scariest Stories To Life

20th Century Fox has released the first trailer to The Boogeyman. The film comes from director Rob Savage who looks to adapt one of Stephen King‘s scariest stories to film and from what we can see in the trailer, this one might have come to life specifically to give us nightmares. The film was originally planned for a streaming release on Hulu but now the Dashcam director will see his adaptation come to the big screen this year.

The film pulls the nightmarish creatures from King’s story that was published in 1973 in an issue of Cavalier. As told through the perspective of a psychiatrist whose patient is recounting their claims of a supernatural creature targeting them. The patient blames ‘The Boogeyman’ for cursing his family and causing the death of each of his children, one by one. Although all the deaths can be explained by natural causes, the patient is convinced to have uncovered evidence pointing to ‘The Boogeyman’. As the psychiatrist shrugs off the claims of anything truly supernatural occurring, he becomes The Boogeyman’s newest target.

Now, don’t feel hesitant to check out the short story ahead of time as the trailer indicates that the film will be somewhat of a sequel as it follows the daughters of the psychiatrist in King’s short story as it will see The Boogeyman wreaking havoc on the grieving family who just lost their mother and before the healing can begin, their father brings the supernatural menace into their home.

Check out the full synopsis below:

“High school student Sadie Harper and her younger sister Sawyer are reeling from the recent death of their mother and aren’t getting much support from their father, Will, a therapist who is dealing with his own pain. When a desperate patient unexpectedly shows up at their home seeking help, he leaves behind a terrifying supernatural entity that preys on families and feeds on the suffering of its victims.”

The film stars Sophie Thatcher, Vivien Lyra Blair, Chris Messina, David Dastmalchian, Marin Ireland, and Madison Hu. The film was penned by Mark Heyman from original drafts by Akela Cooper, Scott Beck, and Bryan Woods. Cooper just delivered a hell of a unique twist on AI horror with M3GAN which recently earned itself a sequel and Beck and Woods penned the hit sci-fi/horror film A Quiet Place which we all know very well putting The Boogeyman in good hands.
