Netflix has paid a hefty sum of $65M to get the rights for this movie. The streaming service deals with many high-profile movies, so it’s no surprise that they would spend big on one production.

When can we watch it?

Netflix is filming a new movie called “Demon House” and it’s planned for release in mid-2023. The footage will be shot mostly on location near Philadelphia, US according to Production Weekly – so if you live there get your casting application submitted!

What’s the plot?

Latoya and her family’s life has been chronicled in the media since they claimed to have been victims of a demonic possession that spanned over two years. They documented all aspects with the Department of Child Services (DCS), Gary (Indiana) Police Department, and hospital staff.

Who’s in it?

Pittsburgh will be happy to have him as he films his next project, Demon House.

Concluding Words 

Rumors had it that Spencer was replaced in ‘Demon House’ by Mo’Nique. The cause is the scheduling conflicts with her show ‘Truth Be Told’ and AppleTV. Daniels directed Mo’Nique for her Oscar performance in 2009 in the movie ‘Precious.’ Since then, the two have drifted apart. Until they united in the sets of ‘Demon House.’

With Netflix snapping up its rights to a horror movie-based story, ‘Demon House’ is all set to give you goosebumps.
