First, came Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey, a twisted take on a classic children’s story. Now, the “Twisted Childhood Universe” continues with another horror-tinged version of an iconic children’s fable. This time, it’s the world of Peter Pan, in Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare. This film reimagines Peter as a demented killer, who kidnaps unsuspecting children to take them to “Neverland.” Written and directed by Scott Chambers, Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare arrives in theaters for three days only starting January 13, 2025, until January 15. You can check out the first creepy trailer right here:

Here’s the first official description for Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare, along with the first poster:

The newest entry into the Poohniverse follows Wendy Darling as she strikes out in an attempt to rescue her brother Michael from the clutches of the evil Peter Pan who intends to send him to Neverland. Along the way she meets a twisted Tinkerbell, who is hooked on what she thinks is fairy dust.

This definitely looks to have some serious The Black Phone vibes, only with a demented fairytale twist. We can’t help but wonder, if Peter Pan is evil in this, then is Captain Hook the good guy? And what about the Lost Boys? (Hopefully, they’re not vampires. We’re afraid others have done that before.) Points to the Neverland Nightmare filmmakers if they somehow find a way to work an angry crocodile into the proceedings.

Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare features Megan Placito as Wendy Darling, Martin Portlock as Peter Pan, Kit Green as Tinkerbell, Peter DeSouza-Feighoney as Michael, Kierston Wareing as Roxy, and Nicholas Woodeson as Steven. It is produced by Rhys Frake-Waterfield (Winnie-The-Pooh: Blood and Honey 1 & 2). You can purchase tickets online at Iconic Events Releasing or at participating theaters’ box office starting December 18, 2024.
