The Weeknd has shared the third teaser for his upcoming album which will be the third and final album in his album trilogy. The Weeknd first shared the trailer, containing a new song, to Instagram with the caption simply saying "unprepared certainty…" The three-and-a-half-minute CGI teaser starts ominously with The Weeknd as a little boy following a cloaked figure into an old house.

The boy's h...
