The Woman in Black has to be the surprise success of the year; many would not have foreseen takings in excess of $120 million worldwide at the box office for the Hammer movie which stars Daniel Radcliffe.

On the back of that success it has been announced today that The Woman in Black is to get a sequel, The Woman in Black: Angels of Death will again centre on Eel Marsh House but set forty years on from the first movie.

Jon Croker has penned the script and Simon Oakes the CEO of Hammer Films seems to be confident of giving cinema audiences another scare fest by saying "It's a wonderful new tale every bit as atmospheric and terrifying as its predecessor. We're proud to be working with Susan Hill again."

Though there is not any news on casting it would be interesting to see if Radcliffe would make a return.
