BEEZEL will have a limited theatrical run beginning September 20, and on September 24 the film will be available to rent or purchase on video-on-demand (VOD).
BEEZEL was written by horror filmmaking duo Social House Films, composed of writer/director Aaron Fradkin and writer/star Victoria Fratz Fradkin.

Horror fans have been anxiously awaiting Social House Film’s second feature, BEEZEL. The first teaser exclusively debuted on Film Updates earlier this year and created lots of buzz with horror fans and top genre horror outlets.

Aaron and Victoria have truly outdone themselves, creating something that will terrify, thrill, and haunt audiences long after the credits roll. I can’t wait to see people on the edge of their seats.” says Epic Pictures/Dread’s VP of US Distribution and Creative, Yulissa Morales.
“Beezel has a darkness that sinks you deep into a terrified trance from the very first scene and doesn’t let go,” says writer/director Aaron Fradkin. Writer/star Victoria Fratz Fradkin notes “It’s the kind of film you won’t be able to stop thinking about even when it’s done.
The official synopsis for the film reads: Over six tumultuous decades, three unwitting guests of a cursed New England home stumble upon a sinister secret dwelling beneath its floors – an eternal witch with an insatiable thirst for the souls of the living.
