Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark gets a new poster

March 27, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

A new poster has been released for the hotly-anticipated adaptation of Alvin Schwartz’s book series Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark featuring a peek at a scene from ‘The Red Spot’, while the movie’s official Twitter account has teased ‘this week will be Scary. More coming soon…’ Whether that’s more posters, or the first trailer, we shall find out soon…

It’s 1968 in America. Change is blowing in the wind…but seemingly far removed from the unrest in the cities is the small town of Mill Valley where for generations, the shadow of the Bellows family has loomed large. It is in their mansion on the edge of town that Sarah, a young girl with horrible secrets, turned her tortured life into a series of scary stories, written in a book that has transcended time—stories that have a way of becoming all too real for a group of teenagers who discover Sarah’s terrifying tome.

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark is set for release on August 9th in the US and features a cast that includes Zoe Margaret Colletti (Wildlife), Michael Garza (Wayward Pines), Austin Zajur (Kidding), Gabriel Rush (Moonrise Kingdom), Natalie Ganzhorn (Wet Bum), Austin Abrams (The Americans), Gil Bellows (Patriot), Dean Norris (Breaking Bad), and Javier Botet (It).
