Ghost Stories trailer: Martin Freeman stars in spooky first clip

Directed by Andy Nyman and Jeremy Dyson

Following a resoundingly positive reception at the London Film Festival, the first trailer for Andy Nyman and Jeremy Dyson’s Ghost Stories has landed.

Based on their break-out stage-play, the spooky feature-film stars Martin Freeman, Paul Whitehouse, and Nyman himself.

Speaking to The Independent earlier this year, Nyman teased Ghost Stories: “The film is not a traditional horror. Like all good stories, it takes the audience on a journey – quite an odd journey, that doesn’t really make sense until the very end.”

While the trailer keeps details about the film to a minimum, the official synopses reveals a little more: “Professor Phillip Goodman (Andy Nyman), psychologist and arch-skeptic, has his rationality tested to the hilt when he stumbles across a long-lost file containing details of three terrifying 'hauntings'.

“Shaken by what he reads, Goodman embarks on a mission to find rational explanations for these ghostly stories. As Goodman investigates, he meets three tormented people, each with a tale more frightening, uncanny and inexplicable than the last.”

Ghost Stories reaches UK cinemas 13 April 2018.
