Promising to put an end to the Bloody Mary saga of the Paranormal Activity franchise by going right back to the beginning, the fifth chapter, The Ghost Dimension will be haunting our screens next month. In that spirit – pun entirely intended – the new motion poster has arrived.
The family enduring the scares this time are Ryan, Emily, their daughter Leila, and Ryan's younger brother Mike. Another daughter has died a year previous to the film, which will almost certainly tie into events here. The location is Palo Alto, where the clan has just moved from New York, so that video game designer Ryan can start his new job.
Emily, meanwhile, is an Earth mother type who does yoga, while Leila is described as a tomboyish combination of her big-kid dad and more mature mom… Oh, and Katie Featherstone returns in demonic guise. We’re all assuming that this is the very start, of course – no doubt someone will want to try an even deeper origin story in due course.
Paranormal regular Gregory Plotkin is directing this one, working from a script by Jason Pagan, Andrew Deutschman, Adam Robitel and Gavin Heffernan, and it’ll be with us on October 23. You can see the trailer right here.
