Dead of Night is directed by Chiemeka Osuagwu, whose credits include Far From Home (2022), Blood Covenant (2022), and A Weekend to Forget (2023).
Set in a tiny village Ekeoba, the movie follows three teenage girls – Chinaza, Onyi and Ihuoma, played by Nollywood fresh faces Favour Etim, Diana Egwatu, and Nene Aliemeke - as they try to rob an abandoned house. But things take a terrifying turn when they become trapped in the house and find out it might be haunted by mysterious forces. They must navigate a labyrinth of horror to escape the clutches of Onwu, an evil entity determined to claim their souls.
The horror movie also stars three time AMVCA nominee Kunle Idowu (Wedding Party 1 and 2), popularly known as Frank Donga. The movie also stars Eric Obinna (Inside Life, Razz Guy), Allison Precious and Chuks Joseph (The Origin: Madam Koi-Koi).

Ogunsanwo, the movie’s executive producer said. “This movie explores themes of fear, guilt, greed, and redemption, all within the context of a gripping supernatural thriller. I'm excited for audiences to immerse themselves in this dark world we've created,” he added.
