Is there a ‘Haunt 2’ on Netflix?
The 2019 horror movie Haunt has been riding high in the Netflix rankings in recent weeks, leading many viewers craving more from the film’s universe.
The slasher movie, directed by A Quiet Place creators Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, received generally positive critical reviews and made $2.2million at the box office, despite not being released in UK cinemas.
Set on Halloween night, the movie follows a group of teenagers who enter a haunted house filled with performers with murderous intent.
