“When the Sun is bright and the wind is still, she comes to you like a sudden chill. Draped in black from head to toe, how she got there you’ll never know.” Those are the words which accompanied the first teaser for The Woman in the Yard, an upcoming supernatural horror from Blumhouse Productions, distributed by Universal Pictures.
In a new trailer, released today, we get a slightly closer look at a modern ghost story, slated for release in theaters March 28, 2025.
Watch new trailer for The Woman in the Yard
The Woman in the Yard centers on the recently widowed Ramona (Danielle Deadwyler) and her children. A tragic car accident claimed her husband’s life and left her in a leg brace. Still healing from fresh injuries, and in the midst of grief, the three of them struggle to rediscover the joy of living. Then a woman appears in the yard, sat neatly in a chair, shrouded all in black.
The woman ((Okwui Okpokwasili; The Exorcist: Believer, Julie Taymor’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream) knows things she shouldn’t know. She claims she doesn’t ever come unless she’s called and, with blood-stained hands, proclaims “today’s the day.”
The family at first thinks the woman is simply lost or confused, but her power and malevolent intentions become apparent as she draws nearer to the house, moving through the shadows. Ramona has to rally her strength to protect her 14-year-old son (Peyton Jackson; Respect, American Refugee) and 6-year-old-daughter (Estella Kahiha; Will Trent, BMF) from an entity she can’t fully understand.
The writer, director, and stars of The Woman in the Yard
From Blumhouse, The Woman in the Yard stars BAFTA and SAG nominee Danielle Deadwyler (Till, The Harder They Fall, The Piano Lesson) as Ramona, a woman crippled by grief after she survives a car accident that takes her husband (Russell Hornsby; BMF, Fences).
The film is directed by Jaume Collet-Serra (Black Adam, Jungle Cruise), written by first-time feature screenwriter Sam Stefanak, and produced by Jason Blum, producer of The Invisible Man and The Black Phone, along with acclaimed Emmy nominated producer Stephanie Allain p.g.a. (The Exorcist: Believer, Hustle & Flow), and is executive produced by star Danielle Deadwyler, Jaume Collet-Serra, James Moran and Gabrielle Ebron.
How to watch The Woman in the Yard
For now, the true nature and intent of the woman in the yard remains, like the woman herself, shrouded. Maybe she’s an embodiment of grief, of the ways tragedy leaks out to touch the people around it. We’ll have to wait and see when The Woman in the Yard hits theaters everywhere on March 28.
