‘The Third Parent’ Exclusive Poster Reveals Tommy Taffy’s Reign of Terror Dates Back to 8000 BC

Tommy Taffy has been terrorizing families for far longer than anyone could have imagined. A new teaser poster for The Third Parent suggests that the malevolent entity at the center of Elias Witherow’s disturbing creepypasta has been haunting humanity for thousands of years.

The latest artwork offers a glimpse into the creature’s mysterious past, taking viewers back to North Africa in 8000 BC. With its theatrical release approaching this winter, the upcoming horror film is building anticipation for Tommy Taffy’s big-screen debut.

‘The Third Parent’ Poster Reveals Tommy Taffy’s Ancient Origins

The newly unveiled poster features an image resembling an ancient cave painting. Two adults stand on either side of a child, holding the child’s hands, while a towering figure looms ominously behind them.

The artwork is labeled “North Africa 8000 BC,” suggesting that Tommy Taffy’s reign of terror stretches back to prehistoric times. The image also hints that the families targeted by the entity may be part of a much longer history of suffering.

The poster follows the film’s first teaser, which offered glimpses of the different families Tommy has tormented throughout history while keeping Crispin Glover’s appearance as the sinister character largely under wraps.

Crispin Glover Plays Tommy Taffy in ‘The Third Parent’

Based on Elias Witherow’s creepypasta story, The Third Parent brings the infamous Tommy Taffy character to the big screen. Glover, known for roles in Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter and other genre films, plays the malevolent entity.

The story follows Tommy as he disguises himself as a human and infiltrates a suburban neighborhood, imposing his own disturbing rules on an unsuspecting family.

Rob Lowe stars as one of the family members caught in Tommy’s terrifying grip, with Roselyn Sánchez also appearing in the film. The story promises a chilling clash between an ordinary suburban household and an entity that appears to operate beyond the boundaries of normal human behavior.

With Glover taking on the role of Tommy Taffy, the adaptation brings one of the internet horror community’s most unsettling creations to theaters.

When Does ‘The Third Parent’ Come Out?

Written and directed by David Michaels, The Third Parent is scheduled to arrive exclusively in theaters through Bleecker Street this winter. An exact release date has not yet been announced.

The latest poster may be the beginning of a broader promotional campaign exploring Tommy Taffy’s history and the families he has terrorized over the centuries. Further footage could offer a closer look at Glover’s transformation into the character as the film approaches its theatrical debut.

For now, the ancient imagery raises an unsettling possibility: Tommy Taffy’s reign of terror began long before the arrival of modern civilization.
