Mike Flanagan has proven himself an excellent storyteller no matter the subject and I can’t think of a better director to take over for Ouija: Origin of Evil. He has a subtle style that works and this subject needs that. Check out the latest trailer below and you’ll see what I mean…

Synopsis: It was never just a game. Inviting audiences again into the lore of the spirit board, Ouija: Origin of Evil tells a terrifying new tale as the follow-up to 2014’s sleeper hit that opened at number one.

In 1965 Los Angeles, a widowed mother and her two daughters add a new stunt to bolster their séance scam business and unwittingly invite authentic evil into their home. When the youngest daughter is overtaken by the merciless spirit, this small family confronts unthinkable fears to save her and send her possessor back to the other side.

Look for the film in theatres this October 21st via Universal Pictures.
