After a long bout of pre-production things are really cooking on Ti West’s next project for Dark Sky Films, The Innkeepers, and we’ve got the first three stills from the shoot to haunt you through the evening!

The film is shooting right now at the The Yankee Pedlar Inn in Connecticut, a hotel long known for being haunted in real life. The film, which blends the classic ghost story style with a solid modern twist, is being produced by Derek Curl, Peter Phok, Ti West, and Larry Fessenden by Dark Sky Films in partnership with Glass Eye Pix.

Check out the first two stills that Dark Sky sent us below along with a third which first appeared over on the official Dark Sky Films Twitter page.

Synopsis
After over one hundred years in business, The Yankee Pedlar Hotel is about to close its doors for good. The last remaining clerks, Claire (Sara Paxton), a twenty-something that has come to terms with her lot in life, and Luke (Pat Healy), a computer-smart loner, are convinced that the hotel is haunted and are determined to prove it. As time ticks down to the final days of operation, mysterious guests check in including Leanne Rease-Jones (Kelly McGillis), a former TV actress turned psychic, and an old man insistent on staying in Room 353. As several strange occurrences begin to add up, both Claire and Luke must make the crucial decision on what to believe and what not to believe…
