EWAN McGregor will hope fans take a shine to his character in the sequel to a horror classic.

He is psychic Danny Torrance, the son of crazed writer Jack, played by Jack Nicholson in Stanley Kubrick’s 1980 film The Shining.

A teaser shows Danny returning to the haunted Overlook Hotel and peering through a gaping hole in a door — made by Jack with an axe in a famous scene. The word “REDRUM”, murder spelled backwards, also reappears after being scrawled by young Danny in his mum’s room.

Doctor Sleep, based on Stephen King’s 2013 follow-up novel, is released in the UK on Halloween.
