After the sinister scare that Paco Plaza provided with his 2017 movie &#039;Veronica&#039;, Netflix has booked him to ensure the spooks this Halloween

Amidst ‘The Nun II’ Frenzy, Paco Plaza Brings the Prequel to His $6,123,089 Earner ‘Veronica’ to Netflix

With masterful storytelling and spine-tingling suspense, Paco Plaza transformed
a real-life paranormal incident into a cinematic nightmare, with Veronica in
2017. Despite almost a decade having passed, the movie is yet to be forgotten by
horror fanatics and still unmistakably finds a spot on the top most disturbing
movies of all time. But to ensure that this year’s spooky season did not pass by
without giving its viewers the scare of their lives, Netflix has been cooking up
something with the director.

The OTT Mogul had tapped Paco Plaza early on to curate another horror
masterpiece. And as Plaza digs into his splendidly horrifying movie to bring
forth his Netflix project, the streamer has given fans a date to anticipate in
the upcoming month.


NETFLIX AND PACO PLAZA UNVEIL RELEASE DATE FOR VERONICA SEQUEL

Just a year before the horror world found its next obsession in The Nun in 2018,
Paco Plaza gave the world something even more horrifying. It follows the story
of a teenage girl named Veronica who conducts a seance with her friends using an
Ouija board during a solar eclipse which ultimately unfolds into a paranormal
possession. The prequel of which, Sinister Death, as revealed by Netflix, will
be released on the 27th of October.

In the first movie, Veronica puts everyone she loves into lethal danger because
of a silly game. It follows a terrifying battle between the living and the dead,
which earned over $6 million globally at the theaters. However, the prequel
which will be releasing on Netflix, titled Sister Death, is diving into the
origins of the first movie. Perhaps the root of the sinister souls that made
Veronica’s life a living hell.

Netflix is welcoming the movie at a time when the theaters are up and roaring
with the second instalment of The Nun franchise. However, the streamer has made
sure it does not get the shorter end of the stick this Hollywood season.


AS THE NUN II COMPLETES ITS BOX OFFICE RUN, NETFLIX PLAYS ITS HORROR CARDS RIGHT

Given the ongoing SAG AFTRA strike, Netflix has been met with plenty of delays
and outright rejection in recent months. However, the streamer has been
preparing for a blockbuster Halloween season way before that. This becomes clear
as it announces one exciting horror project after another. While its Paco Plaza
directorial may be the most anticipated yet, the streamer has also brought
another promising director

This Halloween season, the streamer is once again bringing back Mike Flanagan.
Flanagan has long been Netflix’s go-to director for horror projects. The
director has been the mastermind behind most of the streamer’s successful horror
shows such as The Haunting and The Haunting of Bly Manor and will also be
bringing horror to Netflix with a new project.

Meet Aliza Siddiqui, a Hollywood News reporter at Netflix Junkie. Her love affair with Hollywood began with Anne Hathaway and The Princess Diaries, but it was the thrilling climax of Don’t Look Up that cemented her infatuation with the industry and its filmmaking. Aliza's journey into entertainment reporting began with her time at Otakukart, where she wrote over a thousand articles. Her writing style is cheeky and engaging, as seen in her report "Somewhat Alarmed," where she narrates Jimmy Kimmel's hilarious story of how Jason Bateman tricked him into gecko-sitting. Aliza's ultimate dream is to study and critique films that capture her imagination and the attention of movie-goers worldwide. When she is not busy binge-watching Sacha Baron Cohen movies and The Office, she loves to curl up with a weathered copy of a Khaled Hosseini or Indu Sundaresan book.
