"She never forgives. She never forgets. She never left." The new poster for The Woman in Black 2: Angel of Death warns that the Eel Marsh House is still haunted by a sinister spirit after Daniel Radcliffe's Arthur Kipps visited it in the 2012 film. Unfortunately a group of schoolchildren and their teachers leaving a bomb-pummeled London in 1941 think the haunted house is their safe haven, but it's only a doorway to pain.
"During the London bombings of World War II, school teachers Eve Parkins (Phoebe Fox) and Jean Hogg (Helen McCrory) lead a group of children in evacuation to Crythin Gifford, a remote village outside of the city. When the group takes up residence at the Eel Marsh House, 40 years after Arthur Kipps (Daniel Radcliffe) investigated the first haunting, Eve soon realizes they are not alone. The longer they stay in the house, the more the awful past of the residence unravels itself and the evil spirit that lurks around them threatens the well-being of the children. With the help of a pilot (Jeremy Irvine), Eve does all that she can to protect the children and discover the truth behind the Woman in Black."
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.
