Earlier this year, Winnie the Pooh entered the public domain. Until 2022, Disney had the rights to A.A. Milne’s characters, meaning only they could produce movies, TV shows and the like. Well, that’s not the case anymore, and Jagged Edge Productions quickly jumped on the opportunity to turn the beloved franchise into a horror slasher - Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey. Now, we’ve just got our first trailer, and be warned - it will ruin your childhood.
Take a look at the trailer for Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey right here.
Plot details had been fairly light on the ground before, but thanks to this horrifying two minutes of footage, we can finally piece some bits together. The tale begins when Christopher Robin takes who we can only assume to be his girlfriend to 100 Acre Woods to meet Winnie and the gang, who he hasn’t seen since childhood. However, thanks to years of abandonment, they’ve gone wild, and are out for blood.

We then see Winnie and Piglet hunting down a group of women with axes, for some reason. Not sure how they fit into the Winnie the Pooh lore, if at all, but the two show no mercy to their victims. All in all, there’s a whole lot going on here - from first impressions, it doesn’t look like the movie will be winning any awards, but the concept itself is, uh, interesting, to say the least.
There’s currently no release date for the film, the trailer just says it’s “coming soon”, so we’ll have to wait for more updates.
