Last Updated on August 5, 2021

Guillermo del Toro's haunted house feature CRIMSON PEAK is without out a doubt one of the most exciting horror films on the horizon as del Toro will be delivering an R-rated ghost story with one hell of a cast leading the way. Today, we are excited to share with you guys the film's release date as Universal has slated CRIMSON PEAK with an October 16, 2015 debut!

Here's what it's about:

In the aftermath of a family tragedy, an aspiring author is torn between love for her childhood friend and the temptation of a mysterious outsider.  Trying to escape the ghosts of her past, she is swept away to a house that breathes, bleeds…and remembers.

The gothic horror story, written by del Toro and Matthew Robbins, will star Mia Wasikowska, Jessica Chastain (pictured, below), Tom Hiddleston and Charlie Hunnam. Thomas Tull, Jon Jashni, del Toro and Callum Greene produce, and Jillian Share executive produces.

Next up we have the Jason Blum-produced OUIJA, a film based on Hasbro's famous board game of the same name. The Stiles White-helmed picture will also get an October release, only it will be a year earlier as it will be haunting us on October 24th, 2014.

Olivia Cooke, Erin Moriarity, Douglas Smith, Bianca Santos and Daren Kagasoff all star.

In OUIJA, a group of friends must confront their most terrifying fears when they awaken the dark powers of an ancient spirit board.

The supernatural thriller that is produced by Platinum Dunes partners Michael Bay, Brad Fuller and Andrew Form alongside Blumhouse Productions’ Jason Blum, Bennett Schneir and Hasbro. Universal will distribute the film worldwide.
