The filmmaking team known as Radio Silence — which consists of producer Chad Villella and co-directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett — is at it again with another horror gem.

With Abigail, the team that previously brought us Ready or Not and Scream VI has delivered a crowdpleaser filled with fresh blood. Matilda the Musical‘s Alisha Weir stars as a savage ballerina vampire and, according to Mashable Film Editor Kristy Puchko, delivers one helluva performance.

If you missed it in theaters or would rather watch it at home where you can hide under a blanket, it’s available on digital as of June 25. It will also be streaming in the coming months. Here’s everything you need to know about how to watch Abigail.

What is Abigail about?

Abigail follows a group of criminals who kidnap a rich man’s daughter after ballet rehearsal in order to claim a $50 million ransom. The script is flipped, however, when they realize the pint-sized dancer (Alisha Weir) is actually a vampire. Now they’re locked in an isolated mansion with her, not the other way around. As expected, heads will roll.

Here’s the full trailer:

Is Abigail worth watching?

Despite the trailer practically giving away the entire plot, audiences and critics alike deemed Abigail “certified fresh” on Rotten Tomatoes, with an 85% and 83% score, respectively. While Mashable’s own reviewer wasn’t a huge fan of the sentimental detours that detract from the fun of it all, she still deems the overall film “a blast.”

“It’s exactly the kind of gonzo, gory, goofy crowdpleaser you’d hope for considering its very well-promoted premise. Still, I wish it moved as fast and ferociously as its terrorizing tiny dancer,” Kristy Puchko writes.

When is Abigail streaming?

Abigail is a Universal Pictures film, which means it will eventually make its streaming debut on NBC Universal’s streaming platform, Peacock. Previous Universal films have debuted on the streamer as soon as 45 days after their theatrical release, so we expect to see a streaming date soon. We’ll keep you updated. Until then, you can prepare by signing up for a Peacock subscription.

Before you sign up for Peacock, do yourself a favor and check out the greatest streaming deals below. You may qualify for a discounted subscription or even a free account.

Greatest long-term Peacock deal

Want the most bang for your buck? You can sign up for a full year of Peacock Premium (with ads) for just $59.99, as opposed to paying $5.99 monthly. That ends up saving you 17% in the long run. You’ll have to watch some ads here and there, but it’s hard to beat the price, which works out to just about $4.99 per month. In comparison, the Premium Plus plan without ads would run you $119.99 per year (about $9.99 per month).
