April showers may bring May flowers, but on Crackle, the only thing blooming this month is pure terror. As the rain pours down and the skies darken, prepare to be drenched in fear as Crackle ushers in a torrent of terror all month long.
As the rain continues to fall, Crackle invites you to take shelter in the haunting world of Nosferatu. This 1922 silent classic follows the eerie Count Orlok as he sets his sights on a new residence and the unsuspecting wife of a real estate agent. Prepare to be captivated by the chilling visuals and Max Schreck’s unforgettable performance, which will leave you feeling as though the dampness of the season has seeped into your very bones.
Next, Crackle invites you to seek refuge at a Massachusetts island hotel in Witchery, where a photographer and several other guests find themselves stranded at a haunted locale, tormented by a malevolent woman in black. As this evil witch targets the unsuspecting visitors for her demonic ritual, their island getaway becomes a hellish entrapment with no way out.
But the real downpour of dread comes with Truth or Dare, a game that takes a deadly turn when someone – or something – begins to punish those who tell a lie or refuse the dare. As the body count rises, the players must confront the ultimate question: how far will they go to survive? Is honesty really the best policy, or are some secrets worth dying for?
