Thirteen Ghosts Stories (2025)

๐ŸŽฌ Thirteen Ghosts Stories (2025)
Thirteen spirits. Thirteen nightmares. One cursed house.

Prepare yourself for a journey through horror unlike anything you’ve ever seen. Thirteen Ghosts Stories, the highly anticipated 13-episode anthology horror series, premieres exclusively on Paramount+ in July 2025 โ€” and itโ€™s not just a reboot. Itโ€™s a resurrection.

From executive producer Steve Beck, director of the cult classic Thir13en Ghosts (2001), comes a bold reimagining that dives into the darkest corners of the supernatural world. Each standalone episode unlocks the tragic origin, death, and descent into madness of the ghosts trapped within the infamous house of glass โ€” the Basement of the Black Zodiac.


๐Ÿ‘ป THE SPIRITS AWAIT

This isnโ€™t your typical ghost story. Each of the 13 episodes unearths the personal horror behind one of the iconic spirits:

  • The Torso: Once a gambler with deadly debts, now a dismembered phantom that crawls toward his victims.

  • The Angry Princess: A tale of beauty, trauma, and vengeance, soaked in mirrors and blood.

  • The Bound Woman, The Juggernaut, The Jackal โ€” and more โ€” each tale is a psychological descent into the emotional agony that birthed these specters.

As the episodes progress, small threads begin to intertwine, revealing a greater mythos beneath the surface: a sinister force manipulating the rise of these spirits for a purpose that spans generations.


๐Ÿฉธ A CINEMATIC HORROR EXPERIENCE

Visually inspired by the surreal elegance of American Horror Story, with the oppressive atmosphere of The Haunting of Hill House, Thirteen Ghosts Stories delivers stylized gothic dread, intense supernatural visuals, and bold storytelling choices. Practical effects mix with cutting-edge CGI to bring the ghosts to life in grotesque and terrifying detail.

Each episode feels like a short film โ€” self-contained, yet essential to the growing mystery.


๐ŸŽญ CAST & CREATORS

Starring a powerhouse ensemble including:

  • Anya Taylor-Joy as the tortured soul behind The Withered Lover

  • Jeremy Allen White as a desperate man who becomes The Torn Prince

  • Danai Gurira as a psychic medium uncovering the basementโ€™s secrets

  • Timothy Olyphant as Cyrus Kriticos โ€” resurrected or reborn?

  • Special guest directors include: Jennifer Kent (The Babadook), Mike Flanagan (Doctor Sleep), and Jordan Peele (Us)

Original composer John Frizzell returns to rework the haunting motifs from the 2001 film, now darker and more layered.


๐Ÿ’€ MORE THAN A REBOOTโ€ฆ A RECKONING

Where the original film hinted at horrors, Thirteen Ghosts Stories immerses you in them. These are not just spirits โ€” they are reflections of human failure, loss, rage, and obsession. Each ghost is a mirror we hope never turns toward us.

And by the end of episode 13, when all the stories converge, youโ€™ll realize: the house wasnโ€™t just built to contain themโ€ฆ it was built to summon something worse.


๐Ÿ“บ Unlock the secrets. Face the dead. Embrace the horror.
All 13 tales. Streaming this July, only on Paramount+.
