Haunting Adeline movie officially announced

H.D. Carlton has confirmed that her bestselling dark-romance novel is being developed for the screen, ending years of fan speculation.

The announcement was shared by H.D. Carlton on social media on 15 July 2026. It is the first direct confirmation that Haunting Adeline is moving towards a screen adaptation.

What was announced?

The author confirmed that Haunting Adeline is getting a movie. The project is described as being in development, which usually means substantial creative and commercial decisions may still be underway.

What has not been announced?

There is no confirmed cast, director, studio, producer, screenplay credit, filming schedule, distributor, streaming service, trailer or release date. Posts naming actors or Netflix as the home of the film are therefore unverified.

Could Hunting Adeline be included?

The two main books tell a continuous story, so readers are understandably asking whether both will be adapted. At present, the precise scope has not been publicly detailed. We will update the movie tracker when that changes.

Why the adaptation may attract attention

The novels have a large online readership and unusually intense subject matter. That combination is likely to generate strong interest in casting and adaptation choices, as well as discussion about how the material is handled on screen.

What happens next?

The next meaningful announcements could include a production company, screenwriter, director or casting. Until then, the only responsible summary is that the movie is confirmed and in early development.
