Praising the wonder of horror films, Cregger said, “there’s an undeniable, amplification when you go into a horror movie where you’re allowed to be on this roller coaster ride together..to do it in unison is a wonderful thing.”

In the footage, kids wake up at 2:17am and wreck havoc on a small town. The trailer is narrated by a five-year old’s voice. Mobs of parents are losing their minds in a school meeting. Josh Brolin’s character demands and yells for answers. Julia Garner, a concerned parent is distressed and wake up with night sweats over the stress. She walks into a classroom in the middle of the night to find spooky kids at desk. But there’s blood curdling images– blood exploding from a head, some clown red haired kid popping up in the forest while some teenager is worried he’s in the wrong place…
