The trailer further explores the complicated dynamic between Lowen, Verity and Jeremy as professional boundaries begin to disappear.
"A writer’s words should be honest, bloody, and a little bit terrifying," before Hathaway's character delivers an equally chilling warning towards the end: "This is your final warning: only darkness ahead," the film's synopsis reads.
With its isolated setting and psychological mystery, Verity appears to be crafting a story in which neither the characters nor the audience can easily determine whom to trust.
