‘Stranger Things’ Finn Wolfhard Signs On To Star In Horror Adaptation ‘The Turning’

‘Stranger Things’ fans watched as actor Finn Wolfhard went head to head with Pennywise earlier this year in the new adaption of Stephen King’s It.

But don’t worry, we’ll see Wolfhard again in the next season of ‘Strangers Things’.

Soon the governess begins to see two spirits who she believes are after the children. By the end of the tale readers and critics were left wondering if the spirits existed or if it was all in the governess’ head.

Universal To Adapt Riley Sager’s Novel ‘Final Girls’ For Feature Film

Universal Pictures has obtained the rights to Riley Sager’s novel ‘Final Girls’ that was published by Dutton this past July. Praised by Stephen King, the novel has been compared to a horror version of ‘Gone Girl’. In the novel: “Ten years ago, college student Quincy Carpenter went on vacation with five friends and came back alone, the only survivor of a horror movie–scale massacre. In an instant, she became a member of a club no one wants to belong to—a group of similar survivors known in the press as the Final Girls. Lisa, who lost nine sorority sisters to a college dropout’s knife; Sam, who went up against the Sack Man during her shift at the Nightlight Inn; and now Quincy, who ran bleeding through the woods to escape Pine Cottage and the man she refers to only as Him. The three girls are all attempting to put their nightmares behind them and, with that, one another. Despite the media’s

It’s a safe bet that series creators and show runners the Duffer Brother’s know big hair generation horror pretty well, but how does series star Finn Wolfhard hold up? Well, he know’s more horror than most 14 year olds. Knowing what “The Shining” is isn’t bad for a moppy haired pre-teen, especially when most kids these days can name more emojis than they can books. Maybe Stephen King is a little mature for the teenie bopper crowd, but hey, I read Stephen King and middle school and turned out fine….I think.
