One of the South’s most iconic haunted attractions is about to become the setting for an all-new generation’s nightmares.
Bald Man Films and Todd Slater‘s Convoke Media proudly unleash the first trailer for Hellbilly Hollow, a blood-soaked Southern throwback horror reminiscent of cult classics Terrifier and Friday the 13th, inspired by and filmed on location at the real Hellbilly Hollow haunted attraction in Vincent, Alabama.
Directed by and co-starring Kevin Wayne (The Magnificent Seven, Outer Banks) alongside actor, producer, and rock artist Kurt Deimer (Halloween, Scared to Death), the film transforms the legendary haunt into the deadly playground of two unforgettable killers—Tickles and Bull.
Supercharging the scares, Hellbilly Hollow features eight original songs performed by Deimer, alongside an original score composed by Roy Mayorga of Ministry.
Presented by Atlas Distribution Company, it slashes into select U.S. theaters on Friday, September 25.

In Hellbilly Hollow, a team of paranormal YouTubers ventures deep into the Alabama backwoods to film at a haunted attraction the night before Halloween. They encounter a sinister presence far more frightening—and deadlier—than specters and staged scares: Tickles, a disfigured, childlike clown, and his manipulative caretaker brother, Bull. One by one, the investigators, together with local thrill-seekers, fall victim to the siblings’ sadistic games.
The idea for Hellbilly Hollow took root on-site at the attraction where Wayne was directing a commercial and envisioned a sinister figure hunting victims through the haunt’s eerie backwoods setting. That image became the seed for the film, which was shot entirely on location, giving audiences a first-ever look at the real haunted barn, hayride, and scare zones that have terrified visitors for years, now turned into a hunting ground for a far more dangerous threat.
