We officially have goose bumps!

In a newly released trailer of the horror flick Crimson Peak, the clip starts out in a dimly lit room with a trembling young girl who fears what may come out of the dark.

Mia Wasikowska portrays Edith, who grows up to be an aspiring author, torn between the love of an old friend and the romantic temptation of Sir Thomas Sharpe (Tom Hiddleston). As Edith tries to escape the ghosts of her traumatic past, she becomes captive to a house that bleeds the truth. 

"You see where I come from, ghosts are not to be taken lightly," the Thor star warns.

Director Guillermo del Toro's star-studded cast includes Sons of Anarchy's Charlie Hunnam and Jessica Chastain, both adding elements to a thriller that will surely leave viewers on the edge of their seats. 

"A house as old as this one starts becoming a living thing," Sir Sharpe cautions about the evil energy. "It starts holding on to things, some of them good, some of them bad, some—should never be spoken about again." 

Set in a three story Victorian mansion on an abandoned lot, the haunted house takes on a mind of its own with demonic voices as well as shadowy figures and creepy sounds coming out from every corner. Lady Lucille Sharpe (Chastain) and her questionable intentions seem to be highlighted in the spooky trailer as she tells Edith to avoid certain parts of the home.

Even legendary horror writer Stephen King tweeted about the film, "Was treated to a screening of Guillermo del Toro's new movie, CRIMSON PEAK, this weekend. Gorgeous and just f--king terrifying." 

Crimson Peak is set to hit theaters Oct. 16, 2015.
