The Haunted Village’ follows the story of six Corpers who were posted to a remote village in Osun state for their youth service and unwittingly woke an age-long evil.

Speaking at a private screening of the movie on Wednesday, the director and producer, Tolu Lord Tanner said “When I was about to come into the movie industry, one of the things I wanted to do was make a movie that targets ages 18 – 30, the young vibrant age who do not watch Nollywood and this is what we are doing with Ajuwaya. One of the best experiences I ever had was during my Youth Service. That year I got to experience another life in the same country called Nigeria. Many young adults and even the older ones especially those who underwent the one year compulsory service will be able to relate with this movie and its story. We have a number of new faces in the movie, although some of them are also quite popular in their own space. The story is a good one although not the usual popular Nollywood genre but the audience and all lovers of good movie will enjoy watching it.”
