"They have no other relatives, so we're taking them to a house in the country." Unfortunately for the group of schoolchildren and their teachers leaving a a bomb-pummeled London in 1941, their destination could be more horrific than the violence they flee, as shown in the official trailer for The Woman in Black 2: Angel of Death.

The Woman in Black 2: Angel of Death will be released in the US by Relativity Media on January 2nd. From Hammer and eOne, the follow-up to the 2012 Daniel Radcliffe-starring horror film is directed by Tom Harper off a screenplay by Jon Croker that’s partially based on the 1983 novella, The Woman in Black, by author Susan Hill. The Woman in Black 2: Angel of Death stars Jeremy Irvine, Helen McCrory, and Phoebe Fox.

“England, 1941 With London in the midst of the blitz, two teachers evacuate a group of schoolchildren to the abandoned Eel Marsh House. Seeking safety from the bombs in the remote coastal location, the group instead find themselves facing an evil far more frightening when their arrival awakens the Woman in Black.”
