Available in four variants from the UK-based Apollo Gallery, “Nosferatu’s The Ship of Death” is being offered as a limited, numbered giclee print – and rather chilling it looks, too!

The new Nosferatu, written and directed by Robert Eggers, is scheduled for release on 25th December 2024, by Focus Features in the US, and Universal Pictures internationally.

It’s a remake of the 1922 German film, which was in turn based on Bram Stoker’s 1897 novel, Dracula. The new film stars Bill Skarsgård, Nicholas Hoult, Lily-Rose Depp, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Emma Corrin, Ralph Ineson, Simon McBurney, and Willem Dafoe.
