The Ghost Train (2025): Where the Tracks Lead to Terror

Every passenger has a secret. Every secret has a price.

The Ghost Train (2025) resurrects classic horror with a modern twist, delivering a supernatural thriller set on a train where time, space, and sanity begin to unravel. Inspired by the 1923 stage play and reimagined for today's audience, this chilling tale takes you on a journey that begins with curiosity—and ends in unspeakable dread.

The film follows a group of strangers stranded at a desolate railway station after their train breaks down during a violent thunderstorm. They’re warned not to board the derelict midnight train that occasionally appears out of the mist—an engine said to be cursed, carrying the souls of those who vanished during a deadly crash nearly a century ago. But when that train arrives without explanation, five passengers step aboard… and the real nightmare begins.
