Tongue-in-cheek found footage horror Strawstalker unveils trailer and poster

April 9, 2026 by Amie Cranswick

Dark Atlantic Studios has shared a first trailer and poster for writer-director George Henry Horton’s campy found footage horror Strawstalker.

The film follows a content creator couple Henry and Haley, as they move to a safe L.A. neighbourhood, filming every moment of their move. But their new dream life turns into a living nightmare when a supernatural scarecrow appears in their backyard. Check out the trailer below…

Henry and Haley are a rising content creator couple who’ve just moved into Oak Bridge, a Los Angeles neighborhood marketed as the safest place to live. They’re ready to film every ‘spontaneous’ moment of their new life, unaware that Oak Bridge isn’t interested in being part of their brand. In this neighborhood, the silence is intentional, and the perfection is a performance. When a theatrical scarecrow appears behind their backyard hedge, Henry – a man whose life is a carefully crafted lie – assumes it’s a viral prank. Haley, the ‘true’ heart of the pair who often finds herself going along with Henry’s nonsense, keeps the camera rolling. Then the footage changes. A local warns them that the creature hunts those who aren’t what they seem. In Oak Bridge, the land has a long memory, the neighbors are always watching, and the camera never stops rolling.

Look for Strawstalker coming soon.
