The vampire horror film Vampire Carnival will be available on VOD on October 30, 2026. Directed by David Charbonier and Justin Powell (The Boy Behind the Door), the film stars Jason Isaacs (The White Lotus) and Nell Verlaque (Thanksgiving).

Vampire Carnival follows a grieving young woman drawn to a mysterious traveling carnival that appears without warning in her small town. Seduced by its eerie spectacle and promises of escape, she discovers the carnival is a gateway to a hidden world where vampires feed not on blood but on human despair. As she becomes ensnared in its illusions, she must confront the trauma she has been running from or risk becoming the carnival’s next permanent attraction.

Jason Filardi and Peter Filardi (The Craft) wrote the screenplay. Alongside Verlaque and Isaacs, the cast includes Paulina Chávez (Landman), Kieron Moore (Boots), Eoin Macken (Resident Evil: The Final Chapter), Alicia Sanz (El Cid), and Cedrick Cooper (Boots).

With its late October date, the film lands neatly in the Halloween stretch, and its carnival setting brings a seasonal touch familiar to haunt fans. The official trailer is below.
