Visions of REDRUM will haunt anyone's nightmares.

The first trailer for "Doctor Sleep," the highly anticipated sequel to 1980's "The Shining," is here to terrify us all.

"Doctor Sleep" takes place 40 years after the events of the first film. Ewan McGregor stars as Danny Torrance, who is still irrevocably scarred by the trauma he endured as a child at the Overlook.

Dan has fought to find some semblance of peace, but that is shattered when he encounters Abra (Kyliegh Curran), a teen who shares his supernatural gift of "shine." They team up to battle the merciless Rose the Hat (Rebecca Ferguson) and her followers, who feed off shine in their quest for immortality.

Stephen King notoriously did not like Stanley Kubrick’s 1980 movie because it veered from his novel. McGregor has said "Doctor Sleep" will be “faithful to his novel. But for one thing. And I’m not going to give anything away.”

The sequel comes from director Mike Flanagan ("The Haunting of Hill House"), who has previously said that he won't ignore Kubrick's movie. "“I think you do have to acknowledge it,” he noted. "There is no version of the world where I am trying not to acknowledge one of the greatest films ever made."

"Doctor Sleep" opens in theaters November 8.
