Here’s the thing.  We at HorrorBuzz LOVE a good ghost story. So when Epic Pictures and Tailored films sent us a new poster and stills from a film called The Lodgers, we were stoked. Of course we had to share them with you too so here goes.

The first screenplay by David Turpin, the film was directed by Brian O’Malley (Let Us Prey) and stars Charlotte Vega ([REC] 3: Genesis), Bill Milner (X:Men: First Class), David Bradley (Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban) and Eugene Simon (“Game of Thrones”).

SYNOPSIS: A gothic ghost story about orphaned twins Edward and Rachel who share a crumbling manor in 1920’s rural Ireland. But they are not alone. They share the house with unseen entities who control them with three absolute rules. As separate fates draw them apart, the twins must face the terrible truth about their family’s ghostly tormentors.
