Every new trailer for Talk to Me directors’ supernatural horror follow-up is more disturbing than the last – and I will be seated

A new trailer for Bring Her Back has arrived - and we're getting some serious Pet Sematary vibes.

In the brief clip, which can be viewed below, Sally Hawkins welcomes two new foster children (Billy Barratt and Sora Wong) into her home after their parents die (possibly three, but we don't exactly know who the other scary child is).

One of the children asks how she coped with the loss of her daughter Kathy, to which she replies, "I didn't."

Her inability to cope leads to some pretty serious witchcraft that involves attempting to bring Kathy back from the dead. But if we've learned anything from Practical Magic or Pet Sematary, it's that bringing someone back from the dead doesn't exactly bring them back. Hawkins' inability to grieve/cope is also highlighted by the fact that she had her beloved pet dog stuffed and mounted in the living room.
