"Paranormal Activity 5" Set Next Year’s Halloween On October 24, 2014

While no Paranormal Activity film will be fielding a 2013 release, Paramount Pictures announced today that 2014 will be seeing a double-helping of the "found footage" horror franchise. The newly titled Latino-focused spin-off is now called Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones (a storyline rooted in a Catholic-based investigation into the supernatural) and will debut January 3, 2014, while the Paranormal Activity 5 has been dated for a lucrative Halloween spot with an October 24, 2014 release. 

A fifth film in the franchise was originally planned for release on October 25, 2013, but that spot will now be filled by comedy Paramount and MTV Films’ Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa. The film's producer Jason Blum confirmed in July 2013 that the film was almost finished shooting. Oren Peli, the creator of the franchise, will return to produce the fifth film, and Katie Featherston will return to reprise her role as Katie.
