Here Are Three Monsters Coming to the SPIRIT HALLOWEEN Horror Movie
It’s still hilarious to me that the Halloween store chain Spirit Halloween is being adapted into a family adventure horror film starring Christopher Lloyd and Rachael Leigh Cook. We’ve already gotten a first look at the actors in the film, and now three of the monsters that will appear in the film have been revealed.
These monsters are based on some of the original animatronic creatures from Spirit Halloween. Those include Buzzsaw, Mr. Dark, and Nightcrawler, all of which you can buy. I included descriptions of each of the monstrous characters below.
Buzzsaw
Bill “Buzzsaw” Jackson never had much luck in the squared circle. His lumberjack routine just didn’t cut it with fans of the local wrestling circuit. Well, Buzzaw finally found his calling when he decided to swap his real hands for some twisted new upgrades that were sure to turn the tables in the ring. Unfortunately for Buzzsaw, the fans spent more time running for their lives than watching him wrestle. Now, instead of body-slamming his opponents, he’s busy racking up victims and running from the law!
Mr. Dark
Mr. Dark is waiting. He always is waiting. He’s tucked away in the shadowy corners of a room, patiently crouched in the midnight of a long alley or shrouded in parts of your mind you are afraid of when you fall asleep. Mr. Dark is there biding his time and growing bigger every minute, feeding on your fear, anxiety, wicked thoughts, and growing stronger each minute. Then before you know it, his evil darkness has enveloped you and your soul. Don’t blink because it’s already happening to you!
Nightcrawler
Tossed to the streets by deadbeat parents when just a teen, Nightcrawler learned how to live in the shadows, fend for itself and make friends with the denizens of the night. Years of crouching in the darkest corners of society permanently changed him into a crawling monster that only emerges at night when the sun doesn't burn its pale skin, and Nightcrawlers's beady eyes can find its feast for the night. Lock up your pets – and yourself!
In the film, “When a new Spirit Halloween store appears in a deserted strip mall, three middle-school friends who think they’ve outgrown trick-or-treating make a dare to spend the night locked inside the store Halloween night. But they soon find out that the store is haunted by an angry evil spirit who has possessed the creepy animatronic characters. The kids embark on a thrilling and spooky adventure in order to survive the night and avoid becoming possessed themselves.”
Lloyd plays “wealthy land developer Alec Windsor. Decades ago, one Halloween night, Windsor disappeared without a trace and ever since his cursed spirit is said to haunt the town each year on October 31 for one hour.”
Cook plays Sue, “who has recently remarried after her husband passed away. When a Spirit Halloween store pops up in an abandoned strip mall, Sue’s teenage son Jake and his friends decide to spend the night there for a dare. But they get more than they bargained for when an angry spirit posses the animatronic characters inside.”
The film also stars Donavan Colan (Zoe), Dylan Frankel (Raven’s Home), Jaiden Smith (Blue Bloods) Marla Gibbs (El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie), and Marissa Reyes (Raven’s Home).
David Poag is directing Spirit Halloween, which is expected to be released in October 2022.
