Festive horror Advent is heading our way, where every door opens up a new nightmare. From director Airell Anthony Hayles (Werewolf Santa), this yuletide feast of frights stars Mark Arnold (Blade Runner 2049), Nicholas Vince (Hellraiser), Cory Peterson (Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them), Rasina Pavlova, and Cian Lorcan (Werewolf Santa).

Inspired by the spine-chilling true story of the Blue Whale Challenge – a sinister social media game that pushes players into increasingly dangerous dares – this chiller gives the ghost story a hair-raising, supernatural twist.

Synopsis: When a social media influencer obsessed with urban legends unwraps a mystery advent calendar, she can’t resist opening each door in the countdown to Christmas live on YouTube. But behind every door lies a challenge, some more twisted than others, and as they become increasingly disturbing, her world starts to spiral out of control… will she make it to Boxing Day, or has she unwrapped a holiday hell there’s no coming back from?

Advent gets its world premiere at Pigeon Shrine FrightFest Halloween on November 1st, and a UK digital release follows on November 25th from Miracle Media.
