Horror fans shared their fears of suffering 'nightmares for weeks' after a trailer dropped for a new film based on an unnerving urban legend.
Inspired by a 4Chan post, Backrooms follows a furniture store owner named Clark, played by Chiwetel Ejiofor.
The trailer - which has racked up over 18 million views on YouTube - shows Clark discovering a backroom in his shop that he had been unaware of.
Upon investigating with his friends, Clark also opens up to his therapist about the unusual rooms, as they multiply and break the laws of physics.
In an effort to prove the rooms' existence, Clark and his friends attempt to video tape their findings.
Although things soon take a turn for the worst after discovering something dangerous living within the space.

Another added: 'I'm going to have nightmares for weeks, it's gna be awesome.'
A third penned: 'The fact that they are not only keeping the VHS aesthetic, but also the soundtrack from the webseries tells me this is going to be pure peak.'
