First trailer for Winchester: The House That Ghosts Built starring Helen Mirren

October 24, 2017 by Amie Cranswick

Following yesterday’s poster [take a look here], CBS Films has released the first teaser trailer for The Spierig Brothers’ supernatural thriller Winchester: The House That Ghosts Built which stars Helen Mirren, Jason Clarke, and Sarah Snook; watch it below…

Inspired by true events. On an isolated stretch of land 50 miles outside of San Francisco sits the most haunted house in the world. Built by Sarah Winchester, (Academy Award®-winner Helen Mirren) heiress to the Winchester fortune, it is a house that knows no end. Constructed in an incessant twenty-four hour a day, seven day a week mania for decades, it stands seven stories tall and contains hundreds of rooms. To the outsider it looks like a monstrous monument to a disturbed woman’s madness. But Sarah is not building for herself, for her niece (Sarah Snook) or for the brilliant Doctor Eric Price (Jason Clarke) whom she has summoned to the house. She is building a prison, an asylum for hundreds of vengeful ghosts, and the most terrifying among them have a score to settle with the Winchesters…

Winchester: The House That Ghosts Built it set for release on February 2nd, 2018.

Originally published October 24, 2017. Updated April 18, 2018.
