    NEW DELHI: The famed horror team of director James Wan and writer Leigh Whannell, which created the successful Insidious two years earlier, have reunited with the original cast of Patrick Wilson, Rose Byrne, Lin Shaye, Barbara Hershey and Ty Simpkins in a terrifying sequel to the acclaimed horror film.

    Insidious: Chapter 2 follows the haunted Lambert family as they seek to uncover the mysterious childhood secret that has left them dangerously connected to the spirit world.

    When Insidious released back in April 2011, it went on to become one of the most profitable films of the year having been made for only $1.5 million and grossing $97 million worldwide.

    Made by the makers of Saw and Paranormal Activity, the sequel sees Rose Byrne and Patrick Wilson reprising their roles.

    The film is slated for release on 25 October.
