What happens in the Scared to Death trailer?

The Scared to Death trailer, per the official synopsis, follows a group of filmmakers who “attend a séance at an abandoned children’s orphanage to do research for a horror movie. Soon, supernatural events begin to manifest in both horrific and darkly comical fashion. That’s their first mistake.”

In addition to Shaye and Moseley, the cast of Scared to Death includes Olivier Paris (The Wrong Tutor), Victoria Konefal (Days of Our Lives), B.J. Minor (Grey’s Anatomy), Jade Chynoweth (The Last Ship), Rae Dawn Chong (Quest for Fire), Lucinda Jenney (Practical Magic), and musician Kurt Deimer.

Boyd said in a statement, “Joining the ranks of epic horror films that sprang (albeit loosely) from true-life occurrences The Exorcist, Jaws, The Amityville Horror, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and cult classic horror comedies Young Frankenstein, Shaun of the Dead, and Slither, Scared to Death is a hell of a cinematic ride. “The comedy came naturally from the conflict,” Boyd says. “Genre parody, with humor and horror closely linked. We wanted to deliver an enjoyable feast for audiences.”

Producer Eric Barrett added, “To be honest, I never thought about shooting a horror film specifically. I’m drawn to excellent storytelling, no matter the genre. What I like about this film is that it does cross into comedy, which is a fine line with horror.”

Sacred to Death is executive produced by Shaye, Deimer, Peter Tochet, and Steven Poster. Atlas Distribution Company has acquired the North American distribution rights to the film and will release it on Friday, March 13, 2026, in cities such as Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, San Jose, Sacramento, Austin, San Diego, Houston, San Antonio, Miami, Tampa, Boston, Dallas, Fort Lauderdale, Atlanta, Nashville, Philadelphia, St. Louis, Cleveland, and many more.

“Scared to Death delivers the kind of spine-tingling experience horror fans crave, while offering a fresh take on the haunted-house genre,” said Atlas Distribution Company President Harmon Kaslow. “With icons like Lin Shaye and Bill Moseley leading the cast, audiences are in for a terrifying and unforgettable ride.”

The film is produced by Eric Barrett and Todd Slater, while the executive producers are Kurt Deimer, Peter Tochet, Lin Shaye, and Steven Poster.
