If yesterday’s crop of photos from the Poltergeist remake didn’t send shivers down your spine, then the first trailer just might do the job.
The film stars Sam Rockwell and Rosemary Dewitt as an unwitting couple who move into their new abode that happens to have been built on a cemetery. Cue a gaggle of lingering, pesky spirits who decide to snatch their daughter away to a parallel dimension… much like Carol Anne was thirty three years ago.

Directed by Gil Kenan and produced by Evil Dead maestro Sam Raimi, Poltergeist lands in US theaters on 24 July 2015, with a UK date expected to be confirmed soon. Check out the new poster in full below:
