Psycho (1960) Theatrical trailer is a six-and-a-half minute trailer for the 1960's iconic psychological horror film Psycho. In this trailer, Alfred Hitchcock shows around the set until he's in the motel bathroom.

The trailer

The trailer begins on the Bates Motel set with Alfred Hitchcock, who breaks the fourth wall to the viewers, greeting the viewers at the tour of the Bates Motel film set. He shows around the two buildings throughout the trailer: the Bates Motel and Norman Bates' home, saying that the Bates' house is a "horrible invention" and he shows the inside of the house, as well as the motel. Everything seems to be peaceful until nearly six minutes sharp, when Alfred Hitchcock enters the bathroom, showing a toilet seat. After that, Alfred states to the viewers, "Well, the murder, is he crept in here very serious across the showers on there us, there was sound and...". He then slowly looks at the shower curtains. But when Alfred opens the shower curtains, it shows a close-up of Marion Crane in the shower, she immediately shrieks loudly to the viewers as the Psycho logo immediately appears and it cracks into pieces as Crane shouts with iconic Psycho music, including the dramatic, terrifying music at the end of the trailer.
