March 29 (UPI) -- Netflix released its first trailer for its adaptation of Tim Lebbon's horror novel, The Silence.

"When the world is under attack from terrifying creatures who hunt their human prey by sound, 16-year old Ally Andrews, who lost her hearing at 13, and her family seek refuge in a remote haven. But they discover a sinister cult who are eager to exploit Ally's heightened senses," a synopsis said.

Friday's 2-minute preview shows the survivors trying to make as little noise as possible as they avoid deadly, flying monsters and menacing humans.

Tucci is married to Felicity Blunt, the sister of actress Emily Blunt, who starred with her husband John Krasinski in last year's similarly themed thriller, A Quiet Place.

Shipka is the star of Netflix's series Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and Otto appeared in Annabelle: Creation.
