“Will leave you gasping for air.” “A spellbinding horror film.” Neon has debuted a final official trailer for Steven Soderbergh’s ghost story horror film Presence – following up the main official trailer released last fall. Ready to open in theaters in just a few weeks after a long wait. This originally premiered at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival one year ago and is a chilling flip on the haunted house concept – it’s a shot-in-one-location thriller about a ghost’s presence inside a house. A family moves into a suburban house and becomes convinced they’re not alone. The rest of the story must not be spoiled – wait until you watch it in theaters to find out what happens next. Presence stars Lucy Liu, Chris Sullivan, Callina Liang, Julia Fox, Eddy Maday, and West Mulholland. It’s a chilling, very unsettling film with a smooth camera following a ghost that drifts around this house with a not-that-scary but also very-scary (once it gets going) supernatural story involving the kids. They released three teasers before this – but this might be the scariest trailer of them all.
Here’s the final trailer (+ poster) for Steven Soderbergh’s horror Presence, direct from Neon’s YouTube:
