The terrifying trailer for Amy Adams starrer The Woman In The Window dropped on Thursday.
And the psychological frightmare promises to be deeply scary.

Checking things out: Amy Adams plays Anna Fox, a disturbed young woman who is spying on the man and wife in the apartment opposite hers
The distressed woman sees a young man, who says: 'I live across the street, my Mom asked me to give you this.'
She says, 'I'm not prepared for visitors' but it was evidently Halloween as the next time she checks there's a group of ghouls outside making fun of her.

Anna's voiceover continues: 'I'm an agoraphobic. I can't go outside.' Nevertheless, she opens with door with a shaking hand and is engulfed with a bright light as a woman sings 'I have lived in darkness...'
Cut to Anna at a psychiatrist's office, as the doctor says: 'You've let some of that outside in, your neighbor from across the street.'

The neighbor is Julianne Moore as Jane and she's seen in Anna's kitchen saying: 'I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to be taking these with alcohol,' as Anna gulps down pills and red wine.
The psychiatrist asks, 'She's become a friend?' But there's no answer as the action returns to Anna admiring Jane's earrings that were given to her by an old boyfriend.
'Doesn't your husband mind?' Anna asks, as Jane laughs, saying, 'It's complicated.'
It's done: Jane falls backwards away from Alistair and across the apartment
Doing the right thing: Anna reels back from the window completely horrified and calls the police
It gets worse: To Anna's horror, the detective turns up with Jane's husband Alistair
She watches as Jane returns to her brownstone. A little later she hears a blood-curdling scream, and sees Jane falling backwards, evidently stabbed.
Terrified she calls the police and the detective turns up with Jane's husband Alistair, played by Gary Oldman. 'You have never met my wife,' he says as she replies, 'I know what I saw.'
But to Anna's horror, when he introduces his wife, it's another woman who looks very like Jane. 'Why are you protecting them?' the distraught Anna asks the cop, 'They're all hiding something.'
