'The Babadook' is Coming For You This November: New Trailer Released

Courtesy IMDB

Do you guys remember way back in January when we posted a trailer for the creepy Sundance entry, "The Babadook?" Of course you do. Well now there's a second official UK trailer out for the Jennifer Kent-directed-and-written film and we've learned (via Bloody Disgusting) that the film will be released here in the States on November 28. If you live in the UK, you luck out on October 24. The book mentioned in the film will also be able to read soon...even if you just click here, you can hear him call out to you. He has quite a lovely voice.

Synopsis:
Six years after the violent death of her husband, Amelia (Essie Davis) is at a loss. She struggles to discipline her 'out of control' 6 year-old, Samuel (Noah Wiseman), a son she finds impossible to love. Samuel's dreams are plagued by a monster he believes is coming to kill them both. When a disturbing storybook called 'The Babadook' turns up at their house, Samuel is convinced that the Babadook is the creature he's been dreaming about. His hallucinations spiral out of control, he becomes more unpredictable and violent. Amelia, genuinely frightened by her son's behaviour, is forced to medicate him. But when Amelia begins to see glimpses of a sinister presence all around her, it slowly dawns on her that the thing Samuel has been warning her about may be real.

Enjoy the second trailer and let us know if you're exited to meet The Babadook. I know we are. Maybe he'll even visit you tonight when you're trying to fall asleep? Fingers crossed!
