He’s not in Wonderland anymore, but claiming victims in the new fright flick.

Blue Fox Entertainment will release THE MAD HATTER on all major VOD and digital platforms May 18. Directed by storyboard artist (SINISTER, DELIVER US FROM EVIL, DOCTOR STRANGE) turned filmmaker Cate Devaney and scripted by Devaney and R.V. Romero, it stars Armando Gutierrez, Samuel Caleb Walker, horror vet Michael Berryman (THE HILLS HAVE EYES), Isadora Cruz, Nick Miller and Rachel Brunner. The synopsis: Henry [Walker] and three classmates join their professor for a weekend psychology study at the ‘Mad Hatter’ mansion, supposedly haunted by those who died at a lavish party in the 1880s. Henry is hopeful that the study will cure him of his horrific nightmares about the drowning of his sister but as the weekend progresses, the students begin to question their own sanity as one by one, they disappear.”
