If you played games like Ghost in the Graveyard growing up, you might remember the way your skin prickled when you searched the shadows for your friend, who was, in turn, crouched out of sight and waiting to pounce out of the darkness when you got near. Those adrenaline-fueled moments of your youth could be resurrected in Lionsgate's Nightlight, hitting select theaters and VOD later this month. The film follows a group of teens as they head into the haunted Covington forest for a night of games and ghost stories, and we've been provided with an exclusive batch of photos from the film to share with Daily Dead readers:

"For years, the Covington forest has been shrouded in mystery, with a dark past as a final destination for troubled youths. Undeterred by the news of a classmate who recently took his life in those woods, five teens journey into the forest for an evening of flashlight games and ghost stories. But their plans go awry when the friends awaken a demonic presence, an unseen evil that will seize upon their deepest fears—and plunge them into a nightmare of absolute terror."

Written and directed by Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, Nightlight stars Shelby Young, Chloe Bridges, Carter Jenkins, Mitch Hewer, Taylor Murphy, and Kyle Fain. Lionsgate will release Nightlight in theaters and VOD on March 27th.
