Rachel Talalay’s A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting gets a first trailer and images

September 25, 2020 by EJ Moreno

Director Rachel Talalay is back with a brand-new horror romp for fans. The filmmaker behind Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare and the cult classic Tank Girl looks to take her unique brand of filmmaking to Netflix in A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting.

In the new film, high school freshman Kelly Ferguson reluctantly agrees to babysit on Halloween and is soon recruited into a secret society of babysitters who protect kids with special powers from monsters.

Check out a selection of images, along with the first trailer…

When high school freshman Kelly Ferguson (Tamara Smart) reluctantly agrees to babysit Jacob Zellman (Ian Ho) on Halloween, the last thing she expects is to be recruited into an international secret society of babysitters who protect kids with special powers from monsters. In order to keep Jacob safe from harm, Kelly teams with no-nonsense chapter Vice President Liz Lerue (Oona Laurence), tech genius Berna Vincent (Troy Leigh-Anne Johnson), creature expert Cassie Zhen (Lynn Masako Cheng), and potions master Curtis Critter (Ty Consiglio) to defeat a Boogeyman known as “The Grand Guignol” (Tom Felton), a glamorous witch named “Peggy Drood” (Indya Moore) and their legion of mysterious monsters.

A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting premieres on Netflix this October 15th.
