Universal Pictures has unveiled the first trailer for The House With A Clock In Its Walls, a fantasy horror based on the novel of the same name by John Bellairs.

This magical adventure tells the spine-tingling tale of 10-year-old Lewis who goes to live with his unle in a creaky old house with a mysterious tick-tocking heart. But his new town's sleepy facade jolts to life with a secret world of warlocks and witches when Lewis accidentally awakens the dead.

Directed by Eli Roth (Hostel; Death Wish), The House With A Clock In Its Walls stars comedian Jack Black (Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle), Academy Award winner Cate Blanchett (Thor: Ragnarok), Kyle MacLachlan and Colleen Camp.
