Attention, Stephen King fans! The trailer and poster for The Boogeyman, the latest adaptation of a King story, just dropped, and we are here for the scares. Here is everything we know about the film and the trailer.
This horror-thriller tells the story of a high school student, Sadie, and her younger sister Sawyer. The two sisters are dealing with the recent loss of their mother, and their therapist father is not providing much support. To make matters worse, a patient unexpectedly shows up at the family’s home and brings a supernatural entity with him. Unfortunately, the entity, which feeds on suffering, stays behind.
