For those of you who have enjoyed the Paranormal Activity horror franchise, then it looks like Paranormal Activity 4 is going to be something you'll enjoy watching. A new full trailer has been released that features the return of Katie and the kidnapped boy, Hunter, as well as the evil spirits that love to terrorize people. Oh! And did you know you could turn your X-Box Kinect into a ghost hunting device?!
Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman are back as the film's directors. The story is set in the present, and follows a family who takes in the haunted kid Hunter after their evil neighbor Katie is taken to the hospital. It's the neighborly thing to do, but as you'll see, crazy scary things start to happen.
A work print screening of the film recently took place at Fantastic Fest, and it got some mixed reviews. All of the films got mixed reveiws though, it all boils down to the franchise's audience. Check out the trailer, and below that you'll find a few tweets from people sharing their thoughts on the film.
The movie will be released on October 19th, watch the new trailer and tell us if you'll be heading out to the theaters this Halloween season to watch the movie!
Paranormal 4 is a lot of smart set pieces in search of a compelling ending.

Seems I’m one of the few who appreciated PARANORMAL ACTIVITY 4. It’s clearly rough, but some good ideas and fine interplay. It’ll get better

PA4 doesn’t work. At all. Work print aside, it’s boring, silly and does NOTHING for the mythology. Disappointed after the awesome PA3

PARANORMAL 4 is the most legit funny installment, and strangely the most violent. Last third feels incomplete but maybe it is – we saw a WIP

Paranormal Activity 4 is sadly just a repeat of Part 2. I liked part 3 because it pushed the mythology into new places. PA4 is dog paddling.

Paranormal Activity 4 as a WIP is already an improvement over PA3. Love that these movies built almost completely on tension are hits.
