In the trailer shown today during Disney’s presentation, the séance is led by Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh’s medium as one of those present seeks to hear the voice again of her daughter who met a tragic end a year prior. Before this, it’s intoned, “Anyone who ever lived here falls victim to tragedy.”
During the séance, the guests hear some noise on the other side. “Tonight we are all afraid. We cannot hide from our ghosts. Whether they are real or not,” says Poirot.
