A24’s latest horror thriller follows a haunted attraction performer who awakens surrounded by dead coworkers and becomes the target of a statewide manhunt.
If you think that Halloween season ended in October, then you’d better think again. A24 is putting that idea to the test with its first 2027 film, Slayground, which releases in late January.

Slayground, which comes from Murder Party‘s Jeremy Saulneir, follows scare-actor “Metal Mike” Graves wakes up in a haunted attraction surrounded by the dead bodies of his co-workers with no memory of how they got there. With no memory of how he got there, plus a state-wide manhunt for him, he’s on a race to uncover what really happened to him.
In addition to the newest trailer for the upcoming film, the poster was also released. Check out the full poster down below.
