New character posters have been released for CRIMSON PEAK, providing us with a new looks at the residents of the haunted mansion; Mia Wasikowska's Edith Cushing, Tom Hiddleston's Sir Thomas Sharpe, Jessica Chastain's Lady Lucille Sharpe and Charlie Hunnam's Dr. Alan McMichael. The other big star of director Guillermo del Toro's new movie is the titular estate itself, which holds dark secrets within its crumbling walls.

Some have compared CRIMSON PEAK to Stephen King's Rose Red, but I have a feeling the film will be a much different (and better) beast than the 2002 ABC miniseries. Sorry Mr. King, but that is definitely one of your weaker works. Speaking of the horror writer, earlier this year King got a chance to see a screening of the film, and he described it as, "Gorgeous and just f*cking terrifying."
