The comedian turned scare merchant is back at it.

Giving 1992 thriller The Candyman a 21st Century facelift, Jordan Peele is again staking his claim as the psycho-horror master of our time. From the trailer below, it doesn’t take long to get the gist of the film which was directed by Nia DaCosta – essentially you say his name five times into the mirror and the Candyman comes to get you…

Surely if you knew about this you’d just avoid saying his name right? Well, like in nearly every horror film, some teenagers come along and mess everything up with their reckless inability to foresee danger. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II’s character also seems to have an obsession with Candyman that we can only assume isn’t going to end well.

Check out the trailer which features a fitting Destiny’s Child remix:
