Fans of the Insidious film franchise - and anyone who loves a great horror flick for that matter, will have something to gush about. The film's official Twitter account has recently revealed a first look at the Insidious: Chapter 3 film set, confirming that cameras had begun to roll on the set of the successful box-office film franchise.
A prequel to Insidious: Chapter 2, Screenrant reports that the film will not focus on the Lambert family from the previous film, but will shift its attention to a different family terrorized by demons from The Further.
A newly-released logline from Focus Features reveals that the events in Insidious: Chapter 3 takes place before the previous films. An excerpt from the logline read, "Insidious: Chapter 3, a twisted new tale of terror begins for a teenage girl and her family, predating the haunting of the Lambert family in the earlier movies and revealing more mysteries of the otherworldly realm of The Further."
Marking the special announcement of the film franchise, Focus Features also launched an Insidious 3 Set Visit Sweepstakes on its official Facebook and Twitter pages.
