Wicked Little Things
Karen, Sarah, and Emma Tunney are all moving to a small town in Pennsylvania where, unknown to them, in 1913, a horrid mine accident trapped dozens of children alive, underground. But there's a problem. They're still alive.
Why it matters
A creeping blend of ghost story and undead revenge tale that leans into atmosphere over originality.
- Practical effects deliver unsettling, dirt-caked child apparitions that linger in your peripheral vision.
- Rooted in Pennsylvania mining disaster folklore, it taps into a regional tragedy rarely mined by horror.
- Slow-building dread with a claustrophobic family dynamic at its core—grief and guilt as haunting motifs.
- Not for those craving tight plotting or character sense, but fans of rustic, mood-heavy hauntings will find something here.
