Insidious 5 trailer reunites the Lambert family for a new horror
The first trailer for Insidious: The Red Door is here – and it looks suitably spooky. The fifth installment of the long-running horror series brings back many of the original characters for a story set 10 years later.

Insidious 5 will catch up with the Lamberts ten years after we saw them last, as they prepare to send Dalton – you know, the kid whose spirit was being held captive in a dark, alternate dimension in the first film? – off to college. Newbies to the franchise include Peter Dager, Jarquez McClendon, Sinclair Daniel, and Succession's Hiam Abbass.
