Backed by horror powerhouse Blumhouse Productions and distributed by Focus Features, the film is slated for a nationwide theatrical release on May 15, 2026.




A Wish That Turns Into a Nightmare

At the center of OBSESSION is Bear (Michael Johnston), a lonely music store employee hopelessly in love with his childhood best friend Nikki (Inde Navarrette). Desperate to change his fate, Bear breaks the mysterious “One Wish Willow” — an eerie object rumored to grant the heart’s deepest desire.

The wish works.

But what begins as a romantic miracle quickly transforms into a psychological and supernatural nightmare. As Nikki’s affection intensifies unnaturally, the consequences grow darker, revealing that manipulating destiny comes at a brutal and irreversible cost.

The teaser hints at disturbing visual motifs — warped reflections, unsettling whispers, and shadowy forces lurking just beyond the frame — reinforcing the film’s message: Be careful who you wish for.

Strong Ensemble Cast Anchors the Horror

OBSESSION features a dynamic ensemble cast including:

Michael Johnston as Bear

Inde Navarrette as Nikki

Cooper Tomlinson

Megan Lawless

Andy Richter

With production by Capstone Pictures, Blumhouse Productions, and Tea Shop Productions, the film carries the DNA of modern elevated horror — intimate, character-driven storytelling layered with psychological dread.

Elevated Horror Meets Theatrical Event Energy

In an era where horror continues to dominate box office returns, OBSESSION positions itself as a high-concept, emotionally grounded thriller. Its blend of romantic fantasy and supernatural menace taps into a timeless theme: the danger of wanting what isn’t meant to be yours.

Focus Features’ distribution signals confidence in OBSESSION’s theatrical potential, particularly as audiences continue to seek communal big-screen horror experiences.







OBSESSION opens exclusively in theaters on May 15, 2026.
