The Insidious series is not your typical haunted house or possession story. Instead, it revolves around a dark spiritual realm called “The Further” that haunts people until they die. Despite airing since 2010, this spine-tingling tale has remained captivating, drawing fans back with each new chapter. Its influence has even led to popularizing “Upside Down” worlds and cursed families in the horror genre. With four movies already released and mixed reviews for the latest installments, fans eagerly await the next chapter in the Insidious saga.
Insidious movies are known for constantly using jump scares rather than slowly building up fear. Ghosts and demons in these movies are portrayed as attacking and often looking like real people, blurring the line between physical and supernatural. Each chapter follows a pattern where an entity takes someone’s astral body, and Elise, played by Lin Shaye, must rescue them from “the further.” Even after Elise’s death, she remains a crucial character in the series, as seen in Chapter 2 of Insidious.
It’s been five years since the last Insidious movie, but fans can look forward to the upcoming release of Insidious: The Red Door this summer. With actor Patrick Wilson making his directorial debut and a returning cast, fans have high expectations for this long-awaited sequel. Below are some details that have been revealed about Insidious: The Red Door.

Is There a Trailer for Insidious: The Red Door?
On April 19, 2023, Sony Pictures Entertainment’s YouTube channel posted the official Insidious: The Red Door trailer, giving fans their long-awaited first look at the Lambert family’s return.
On June 6, the last trailer for Insidious: The Red Door came out, quickly reminding us that this would be the last movie in the series. The tension rises as the music and the scary sound of a squeaky door play together. We can’t wait to find out what happens in the movie.
Who is the Director of Insidious The Red Door?
Insidious: The Red Door is the first movie that Patrick Wilson, one of the film’s stars, has directed. It will be the first time people have seen him direct, but it’s clear that Jason Blum and James Wan want him to do it. Blum, Wan, Oren Peli, and Leigh Whannell, who helped start and write the series, are all movie producers. Scott Teems wrote the movie’s script of Halloween Kills and used a story by Whannell. Blumhouse is famous for making scary movies like “The Purge,” “Paranormal Activity,” and “Get Out,” which have fans all over the world. With this talented group working on it, it doesn’t look like Insidious: The Red Door will miss the mark.
What’s the Plot of Insidious The Red Door?
Insidious: The Red Door is said to be the last film in the series. The Lambert family, who were the main characters in the first two films but weren’t in the third and fourth films, will return. From Sony Pictures, here is the official plot summary:
In Insidious: The Red Door, the horror franchise’s original cast returns for the final chapter of the Lambert family’s terrifying saga. To put their demons to rest once and for all, Josh (Patrick Wilson) and a college-aged Dalton (Ty Simpkins) must go deeper into The Further than ever before, facing their family’s dark past and a host of new and more horrifying terrors that lurk behind the red door.
In the last movie, “Insidious: The Last Key,” Elise returns to her traumatic childhood and kills the demons hurting her family. Ultimately, it came full circle as a proper prequel and showed us how the Lambert family dealt with things in chapter one. The fifth book in the series will have a similar plot, with Dalton’s past returning to haunt him. We can expect the movie to follow the pattern of the series, with someone going in and out of The Further to save a soul.
The movie would first be called Insidious: Fear the Dark, but in March 2023, the name was changed to The Red Door.
What Does the Red Door Mean in Insidious?
The Red Door holds significant importance in the Insidious movie franchise as it is the primary entrance to the Further. This portal leads to various portals and lairs of the primary antagonists, providing them a means to enter our world and wreak havoc on unsuspecting victims. The Red Door is a dark and foreboding symbol of the evil that lies beyond, and those who dare to enter it do so at their peril.
Where Can You Watch Insidious: The Red Door?
Insidious: The Red Door will only be available in movie theaters. The exact dates and locations for movie streaming have yet to be confirmed. Screen Gems, the distributor of the movie owned by Sony Pictures, has a streaming agreement with Netflix. The movie is expected to be available for streaming on Netflix by late 2023.
Is Johnny Depp in Insidious?
Recent news has confirmed that Leigh Whannell will join the upcoming project’s production team. Unfortunately, it has also come to light that Johnny Depp, who had been attached to the project since February 2016, will no longer be starring in it. This development has caused some disappointment among fans eagerly anticipating Depp’s involvement in the project. Nonetheless, adding Whannell to the production team will surely bring a fresh perspective and creativity to the project.
