Sam Raimi-produced Netflix horror movie lands The Nun director Corin Hardy

Netflix has snagged the Sam Raimi-produced Every House is Haunted, with The Nun's Corin Hardy set to direct a script from Jason Pagan and Andrew Deutschman. 

Deadline reports that Every House is Haunted centers on an insurance investigator who tries to debunk claims that a couple’s death was caused by a haunted house, but his doubts are challenged by a psychic and the mysterious occurrences he witnesses with his own eyes.

Hardy is a proven horror filmmaker. She previously directed the 2018 movie The Nun, a spin-off of 2016's The Conjuring 2 and the fifth installment in the Conjuring Universe franchise. The plot follows a Roman Catholic priest and a nun in her novitiate as they uncover an unholy secret in 1952 Romania. Hardy also directed and co-wrote The Hallow, which debuted at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival. The Hallow received mostly positive reviews from critics with a 73% certified fresh score from Rotten Tomatoes.
