Originally posted on Men's Journal | By Billie Melissa | Last updated Jun 24, 2024 11:30 AM ET

The terrifying first teaser for Robert Eggers Nosferatu is here, and it is every bit as haunting as those first reactions out of CinemaCon earlier this year suggested.

After screening exclusively in theaters before The Bikeriders this weekend, Focus Features has now released the two-minute preview, giving us our first taste of the tantalizing terror Eggers has in store for us in his long-awaited spin on the classic tale.

Starting strong and not letting up until the final second, Nosferatu's preview includes blood-curdling shrieks, plenty of fire and even someone taking a bite out of a pigeon.

Nosferatu's cast is made up of Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Bill Skarsgård, Willem Dafoe, Nicholas Hoult, Emma Corrin, Ralph Ineson, Lily-Rose Depp, Simon McBurney, Paul A Maynard, Stacy Thunes and Roman Bloodworth.

Following the teaser's release, Focus Features has also shared a selection of images.
