While You Wait For The Phasmophobia Movie, Don’t Miss This Hidden Gem

While You Wait For The Phasmophobia Movie, Don’t Miss This Hidden Gem https://ift.tt/d5ECxWO An official Phasmophobia movie is on the way; we learned as much last summer . But what if I said you could watch something quite like Kinetic's ghostbusting co-op game right now?  That's the elevator pitch I bring you, fellow horror fans, less than two weeks out from Halloween. The movie is Never After Dark, a gorgeously shot, cleverly creepy ghost story that Phasmophobia fans shouldn't miss. Never After Dark tells the story of Airi, a young woman who can commune with ghosts.
