Minor, albeit encouraging, news regarding the Guillermo del Toro-produced remake of DON’T BE AFRAID OF THE DARK has been scooped by Fangoria: Mike Elizade, an Oscar-nominated effects artist on HELLBOY II, has been hired to work on the flick, along with his company Spectral Motion.

DON’T BE AFRAID OF THE DARK – which is a remake of a 1973 ABC movie – is about a young girl who’s sent to live with her father and his new girlfriend in their country home, only to discover there are sinister creatures living in the walls.
