Barbara Crampton is Jakob’s Wife in trailer for new horror

July 14, 2021 by Amie Cranswick

Shudder has released a poster and trailer for director Travis Stevens’ horror Jakob’s Wife which stars genre legend Barbara Crampton as Anne, a woman living a banal life as the wife of a small town minister, who finds herself with a new sense of power and an appetite to live bolder after a chance encounter with ‘The Master’; take a look here…

Anne is married to a small-town minister and feels like her life and marriage have been shrinking over the past 30 years. After a chance encounter with “The Master,” she discovers a new sense of power and an appetite to live bigger and bolder than before. As Anne is increasingly torn between her enticing new existence and her life before, the body count grows and Jakob realizes he will have to fight for the wife he took for granted.
