Brinke Stevens, Celeste Blandon and Kendall Krueger lead the cast of the upcoming short film sequel, filming this September at Florida’s historic May-Stringer House.
Indie Horror Junkie has officially announced the principal cast for THE CLOCK HELLS BELLS, the upcoming short film sequel to its supernatural feature film THE CLOCK. The short film is written, directed and produced by Indie Horror Junkie’s own Rick Danford and Aimee Rolfsen. Continuing the mythology established in the original film, THE CLOCK HELLS BELLS introduces a new group of characters who find themselves drawn into the sinister history surrounding an infamous grandfather clock and the demonic forces determined to use it as a gateway into the world of the living.
Legendary scream queen BRINKE STEVENS stars as Irma Toombs, the caretaker of a secluded bed and breakfast that is home to the mysterious clock. Joining Stevens are rising horror actresses CELESTE BLANDON and KENDALL KRUEGER, portraying podcasting sisters Bethany and Madori, known to their listeners as The Synsters. The sisters investigate urban legends and paranormal mysteries, but their latest case has a deeply personal connection. Their mother, a spiritualist, previously encountered the supernatural clock under terrifying circumstances. After tracking its whereabouts, Bethany and Madori believe they have finally located it at Irma’s bed and breakfast. They book a room hoping to determine whether this particular grandfather clock is indeed the same one connected to their mother’s past. What begins as a paranormal investigation soon places the sisters at the center of something far more dangerous, as dark forces threaten to open a gateway capable of unleashing the legions of Hell upon the Earth.
THE CLOCK HELLS BELLS is scheduled to begin filming in September 2026 on location at the historic May-Stringer House in Brooksville, Florida, widely known for its reputation as one of the most haunted locations in the state. The film is scheduled to make its world premiere on Halloween Day, October 31, 2026, as part of the upcoming Halloween Horror Picture Show.
