Sarah Paulson's Dust Bowl Nightmare Will Terrify You In Hulu's HOLD YOUR BREATH!

Setting can play such an important role in horror movies, think the Overlook Hotel in Kubrick’s “THE SHINING” or the eerily quiet streets of Haddonfield in Carpenter’s “HALLOWEEN”. Hulu and Searchlight Pictures are preparing to immortalize 1930 Dust Bowl Oklahoma in stark terror with their intense upcoming film HOLD YOUR BREATHE. Starring Sarah Paulson as a woman besieged by unnatural forces and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as the stranger that may be the cause of it all, this film promises to take your breath away. Check out the details from the press release below as well as the trailer, and prepare yourself for a horrifying experience in terror you won’t soon forget!

From The Press Release

Oklahoma, 1930s. The Bellum family house rests in a valley of dirt as clouds of dust blot out the sun. Margaret (Sarah Paulson) and her two daughters, Rose (Amiah Miller) and Ollie (Alona Jane Robbins), tend to their sparse farm while Margaret’s husband has left in pursuit of work. As they struggle to survive the punishing Dust Bowl environment, a mysterious stranger (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) arrives, threatening all they know and love. But is the threat a closer one?
