The Lodge and Goodnight Mommy filmmakers Veronika Franz and Severin Fiala are in high demand this week, beginning with The Devil’s Bath. Now, Variety reports that the duo are set to helm an adaptation of Paul Tremblay‘s acclaimed novel, A Head Full of Ghosts.

The horror film will be adapted and directed by Franz and Fiala and produced by Robert Downey Jr.

A Head Full Of Ghosts sees a young woman recount to a journalist the terrifying story of how her family was publicly ripped apart 20 years prior by her teenage sister’s mysterious affliction.

The story “follows the Barretts, whose normal suburban New England life is torn apart when their teenage daughter shows signs of acute schizophrenia, reluctantly leading them to be the subjects of a reality show, “The Possession.” Some 15 years later, Merry faces her family’s haunting past when a journalist is assigned to help tell her side of the story and uncovers the very nature of evil.”

The novel was published in 2015, with multiple directors attached to helm an adaptation over the years, including Osgood Perkins and Scott Cooper. The adaptation was set up in 2020 with Cross Creek, Team Downey and The Allegiance Theater, with STX to distribute in the U.S. and U.K. and Margaret Qualley attached to star.

Tremblay’s other books include the bestselling The Cabin at the End of the World, which was adapted by M. Night Shyamalan in last year’s Knock at the Cabin.

A Head Full of Ghosts is produced by Team Downey and The Allegiance Theater. Fifth Season is financing development and production. Producers are Daniel Dubiecki and Lara Alameddine from The Allegiance Theater, Susan Downey and Robert Downey Jr. for Team Downey, and David Gambino.

Stay tuned for news on A Head Full of Ghosts as they arrive. In the meantime, The Devil’s Bath has been set to premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival.
