The Brooklyn 45 trailer promises viewers an edge-of-the-seat experience
The trailer for Brooklyn 45 was released on Shudder's official YouTube channel on May 17, 2023. It begins with five old friends getting together at a brownstone in Brooklyn.
After a small toast acknowledging the specialness of the moment, the host talks about the recent passing of his wife.
Cashing in on the sympathy that he receives, he convinces his friends to participate in a seance, possibly to establish communication with his late wife. After breaking down the basics of the process, the host forms a circle with the others and commences the seance.
Things begin to take a supernatural turn right after and the activities make the group want to break the circle.
Despite warnings from the host about the consequences of exiting without finishing the seance, the circle gets broken. This is when things turn bloody, quite literally. What follows is a series of tense events, with an apparent stranger joining the group of five.
The trailer for Brooklyn 45 ends with one of the group members challenging another's observation or claim that the seance is over.
The AMC+ press release announcing the release date came with a brief synopsis that reads:
"Five military veterans, best friends since childhood, gather to support their troubled host, and the metaphoric ghosts of their past become all too literal."
