Uh, my second opinion on that point. ? A logline's target market is movie makers, producers and investors, not movie viewers. ?Ergo, a logline has a different purpose than a movie blurb (the kind of one-liners posted on IMDB). ?I don't think a logline should play hide-and-seek with it's ?premise and story hook.

imho

"It's vague but part of the fun of the first act is the discovering of the mysterious nature of the premise, in my opinion."

Just keep in mind that a logline is not made for the audience, not made to get them to watch. It's used to convince someone to read the script, a step to getting a producer or someone with money interested in investing that money into your story. I'm not saying that you must state what the supernatural killer is, but if it's an interesting, unique thing that is uncommon in stories it may be the thing that hooks the producer.
Good luck with your writing.
