It holds the formula to bring him back to life.

Summoning magic from the druids, combining the forces of nature with her own blood. Adèle obsession for the potential return of her beloved husband. She ignores, as she performs the supernatural ceremony. That she becomes The Chosen One of a very ancient lineage of vegetal incubi, craving to perpetuate their race.

The Official Trailer for The Thing Behind The Door


“Stories involving rural folklore and ancestral magic abound in France. But are too rarely brought to screen,” said filmmaker Fabrice Blin. “The Thing Behind the Door is a dark fantasy tale that fully embraces the horror genre film. However, the film is also a human drama addressing strong themes. Such as the loss of a loved one and the place of man with nature.”
