Last week we brought you the cool promo teaser for Darren Lynn Bousman’s upcoming horror flick ABATTOIR, and now we can bring you the first casting news. HOUSE OF WAX, “Chosen” and “One Tree Hill” star Chad Michael Murray has taken the lead in Bousman’s haunted house pic, which is being sold at the Cannes Film Market as we speak.

ABATTOIR centers on a Boston real-estate reporter who unearths an urban legend about someone who has spent decades buying homes where horrific tragedies have occurred and then pieces them together.
