Comment on Box Office: 'Takers' takes first place from 'Exorcism' by 100K

Berger follows up his Oscar-winning World War I juggernaut with a claustrophobic Vatican thriller containing more nuanced craft contenders.

Just in time for Halloween, Estes Park’s Stanley Hotel will host a horror-themed weekend that includes interactive events and screenings of a new series from Peacock and Blumhouse Productions. Blumhouse, the company behind frightening films such as “Get Out,” “Sinister” and “M3GAN,” is turning the historic hotel into an immersive experience, according to a statement.

Co-created by Ian Brennan and Ryan Murphy, the series falls short of even being true-crime schlock.

"I don't think you can work with Greta Gerwig and Olivia Wilde and walk away from that experience and not want to write and direct."

Guests will have the chance to stay in rooms inspired by "Insidious," "Freaky," "Happy Death Day," and "The Purge."

And just as strong are Leila George and Louis Partridge in the seven-part series dropping Friday, October 11.
