First trailer for gothic horror The Little Stranger starring Domhnall Gleeson and Ruth Wilson

June 11, 2018 by Amie Cranswick

The first trailer and poster have arrived online for Room director Lenny Abrahamson’s upcoming adaptation of Sarah Waters’ 2009 gothic novel The Little Stranger. The supernatural mystery horror stars Domhnall Gleeson, Ruth Wilson, Will Poulter, and Charlotte Rampling; take a look below…

THE LITTLE STRANGER tells the story of Dr. Faraday, the son of a housemaid, who has built a life of quiet respectability as a country doctor. During the long hot summer of 1948, he is called to a patient at Hundreds Hall, where his mother once worked.  The Hall has been home to the Ayres family for more than two centuries.  But it is now in decline and its inhabitants – mother, son and daughter – are haunted by something more ominous than a dying way of life.  When he takes on his new patient, Faraday has no idea how closely, and how disturbingly, the family’s story is about to become entwined with his own.

The Little Stranger is set for release on August 31st.
