Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones is a 2014 American found footage supernatural horror film written and directed by Christopher Landon. It is the fifth in the Paranormal Activity film series. The film stars Andrew Jacobs, Jorge Diaz, Gabrielle Walsh, Richard Cabral, Noemi Gonzalez, and Renée Victor, with Micah Sloat and Katie Featherston reprising their roles from earlier films.
Set in 2012 in Oxnard, California, the film follows teenager Jesse Arista as he becomes "marked" after investigating the death of a neighbor and a series of occult artifacts, leading to escalating paranormal events tied to a witches' coven. The story connects to the broader franchise mythology and culminates in events that intersect with the conclusion of the first film.
Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones was released in the United States on January 3, 2014 by Paramount Pictures. Made on a budget of $5–9.2 million, it grossed $91 million and received mixed reviews from critics. It was followed by Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension (2015).
