We at FANGORIA firmly believe that horror is a space for everyone, so we were pleasantly surprised when news dropped of Devon, the found footage debut from Jersey Shore star Jenni ‘Jwoww' Farley, and even more pleasantly surprised by how creepy today's first trailer is.
Hitting SCREAMBOX on November 12 via Cineverse, Devon follows a group of friends that tries to learn the truth about an unsolved disappearance but end up at the center of a terrifying mystery.
A more detailed synopsis reads:
“Following their daughter’s mysterious disappearance, Devon’s parents never stopped searching for the truth. After the asylum she disappeared from was condemned, their questions looked like they would remain forever unanswered. Years later, a cryptic website recruits five courageous individuals to explore the abandoned asylum and discover what happened to the girl.
Unaware that they are embarking on a perilous, one-way journey, these individuals delve into the sinister depths with only their equipment, leading to a terrifying and deadly experience.”
Devon stars Tara Rule (Girl in the Palms), Hank Santos (Aberration), Rotisha Geter (Those Who Wait), Steven Etienne (One Week in Heaven) and Lauren Carlin.
As well as directing, Farley, currently starring in Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, also wrote the script and served as Devon‘s executive producer.
Collider, who debuted the trailer earlier today, also report that Devon is just the start of Farley's horror career, as the reality television star is also partnering with BarBHouse Productions to bring her script for another horror thriller, Nanny Cam, to life.
On beginning her horror journey, Farley had this to say:
“I am thrilled to be diving into the horror space alongside Cineverse and SCREAMBOX who have the industry and fandom knowledge to see that Devon lands in the hands of the right audience […] As a longtime reality TV veteran, I’m excited to kick off this new chapter in the horror movie genre and hope that Devon is just the beginning.”
Check out Devon on SCREAMBOX on November 12.
