Knock at the Cabinis Based on the NovelThe Cabin at the End of the Worldby Paul G. Tremblay
It has also now been revealed thatKnock at the Cabinwill be based on the novelThe Cabin at the End of the Worldby Paul G. Tremblay. Released in 2018, the novel has since been described by seminal horror author Stephen King as “thought-provoking and terrifying” and was awarded the Horror Writers Association’s Bram Stoker Award for Novel in 2019.
Tremblay has been batting back questions about the adaptationsinceKnock at the Cabinwas first announced. Thankfully, the author can now openly discuss the project, which he did in a recent interview with CNBC.
“I honestly spent a chunk of my 2022 spring quelling internet rumors and putting out Twitter fires connecting the book and movie. It reached a point in early June where that became impossible, however, with all the information out there, including the IMDb page. I have been doing my part to be respectful of movie marketing desires and certainly wouldn’t dream of spoiling anything. Like the majority of adaptations, there will be story changes and differences compared to the book so my readers will still be surprised by the film.”
Knock at the Cabinis scheduled to be released in the United States on August 03, 2025, by Universal Pictures.
