The story that served as the inspiration for “Boogeyman” was published in King’s 1978 horror anthology, Night Shift. According to the studio, the film’s main characters are a 16-year-old girl and her younger sister who are both still in shock after the murder of their mother and who become the target of a supernatural boogeyman after their father, a psychotherapist, has a run-in with a desperate patient at their home.
