The Harvest Moon takes to the skies beginning tonight, and Focus Features is celebrating with the brand new official trailer for director Robert Eggers’ latest nightmare, Werwulf.
The director of atmospheric chillers The Witch and Nosferatu warns that Werwulf is the darkest movie he’s written to date, and you can get a taste of the primal experience by watching the new official trailer below. In addition to the new trailer, Focus Features has launched the Werwulf Alternate Reality Game this weekend. You’ll find it over on DevourethAllMankynde.com.
Get fully immersed into the world of Werwulf with an alternate reality game that is timed to each of the full moons between September through November and culminates in a mysterious prize for those that complete all three moons each full moon. You will need to seek out a hidden “sign” on various digital platforms and decipher the sign back into the site in order to fulfill the moon.
The catch is, you only get 24 hours each full moon to search for the sign before it disappears so you’ll need to work fast to find it!
Here’s the first clue…
