Elisha Cuthbert and Eoin Macken are set to star in a new Irish-based horror tale, The Cellar.

According to Deadline, The Cellar is the story of Keira Woods (Cuthbert), whose daughter mysteriously vanishes in the cellar of their new house in the country. Keira soon discovers there is an ancient and powerful entity controlling their home that she will have to face or risk losing her family’s souls forever.

Brendan Muldowney has penned the script and will direct the film for Epic Pictures, which starts shooting in November in Roscommon,

“Some nightmares are meant to be shared with the world,” said executive producer Patrick Ewald of Epic Pictures. “The Cellar is perhaps the darkest one. The incredible combination of direc-tor Brendan Muldowney, producers Conor Barry and Richard Bolger, along with Elisha Cuthbert and Eoin Macken make this unique and riveting horror story something special to capture the attention of buyers at AFM and audiences around the world.”

“I’m very excited to be working with such a talented cast and crew to bring the world of The Cellar into people’s nightmares,” added writer-director Muldowney.
