Bethesda has revealed the launch trailer for its upcoming survival horror The Evil Within 2, and it’s out on October 13 for PS4, Xbox One and PC. Jeez, that’s Friday the 13th. The trailer is jam-packed with plenty of swear words, foreboding quotes, and some truly petrifying creatures. There’s even an outrageously haunting lady monster who resembles Edvard Munch’s famous painting, The Scream. But I’m not scared, honest.

The Evil Within 2 is a direct sequel to the original that came from the twisted imagination of the ex-Resident Evil director Shinji Mikami. The story takes place three years after the events of the first game. Sebastian Castellanos is even more moody than before, having been forced to return to the nightmare of the STEM world to save the daughter he thought he’d lost. 

The Evil Within 2 will be released for the PS4, Xbox One and PC on October 13.
