Ahead of its UK digital release later this month, Seven Tales has shared a trailer for writer-director Paulo Nascimento’s possession horror 13 Souls.
Starring Sienna Belle, Tim Shelburne, and Brielle Tucker, the film centres on a teenage girl who moves in with her estranged father and older sister following the death of her mother, only to find herself the target of a dark spirit linked to a fiery massacre some fifteen years prior. Check out the trailer below…
In the 1970s, 13 people died in a devastating apartment block fire. Burnt beyond all recognition, the unidentified victims were buried side by side in a New Jersey cemetery. Years later, 15-year-old Agne (Sienna Belle – Game Crashers, The Taxidermist) is found roaming around her apartment while her mother’s lifeless body decomposes next to her. Her estranged father, Ariel (Tim Shelburne – Mind Over Murder, Here Love Lies), and older sister, Nina (Brielle Tucker) – who haven’t seen Agne since she was kidnapped by her mother 10 years before – come to take the traumatised teen home with them. As she adjusts to family life, mysterious, supernatural occurrences start to plague the household.
When Ariel returns to his job as a cemetery caretaker, Agne develops a fascination with the graveyard, and finds herself inexplicably drawn to the 13 unmarked tombs of those who perished in the fateful fire. Possessed by a dark spirit, Agne begins a reign of terror over her family, setting her sights on destroying Nina’s innocent soul. Desperate to save both his daughters, Ariel seeks the advice of an unorthodox priest who harbours his own connection to the inferno. But with his spiritual guidance, will it be enough to save the girls, or does Agne’s soul already belong to the Devil?
13 Souls arrives on digital on May 25th.
