Spirit Halloween Movie Trailer: Three Kids Take On A Possessed Store
Spirit Halloween: The Movie trailer teases the upcoming family horror film starring Christopher Lloyd and Rachel Leigh Cook. Every year Spirit Halloween stores pop up in abandoned retails spaces across the country. Now the popular seasonal store is getting its own decidedly Halloween-themed tie-in movie.
Spirit Halloween: The Movie comes from Orion Pictures, the re-booted movie studio whose last release was 2017’s Wish Upon. Directed by David Poag from a script by Billie Bates, the movie concerns a group of Halloween-loving middle school kids who get locked in a Spirit Halloween store after hours and begin encountering actual spooks and spirits. Back to the Future legend Lloyd plays one of the movie’s ghostly entities, alongside Cook of She’s All That fame. The movie also stars TV icon Marla Gibbs along with Donovan Colvan, Marissa Reyes, Jaiden J. Smith, Dylan Martin Frankel, and Brad Carter.
