From the Nightmares of Clive Barker Comes First Look at Hulu’s Anthology Film ‘Books of Blood’ [Trailer]

One of Hulu‘s Halloween treats this year is the anthology film Books of Blood, a brand new adaptation of legendary horror master Clive Barker‘s Books of Blood stories.

The feature film anthology will premiere on October 7, and Hulu has debuted the very first footage from the movie today. You can check out the teaser trailer below!

Announced last year, Brannon Braga (“The Orville”) directed Books of Blood for Hulu, named after the six volumes of original Clive Barker stories that were published in the mid-’80s. Braga also co-wrote and executive produced the film, with Seth MacFarlane executive producing alongside him. Here’s the plot synopsis we were recently provided with:

“Written by Braga and Adam Simon (Salem) based on a short story by Barker with contributing original material, Books of Blood takes a journey into uncharted and forbidden territory through three tales tangled in space and time.”

The previously announced cast includes Andy McQueen (Fahrenheit 451), Freda Foh Shen (Ad Astra), Nicholas Campbell (Da Vinci’s Inquest), Anna Friel (Marcella), Britt Robertson (For the People), Rafi Gavron (A Star Is Born) and Yul Vazquez (Midnight, Texas).

As you may recall, Hulu was originally developing Books of Blood as a TV series.
