It took me a long time… but you of all people know ‘dead’ is just a word. Universal has unveiled the second trailer for the highly anticipated sequel Black Phone 2, the horror follow-up to C. Robert Cargill & Scott Derrickson’s film The Black Phone which opened 2022. This one will land in theaters starting in the middle of October during the spooky season. The story of the masked man ain’t over yet. 4 years ago, 13-year-old Finn killed his abductor & escaped, now the sole survivor of The Grabber. But true evil transcends death… and the phone is ringing again. Will you answer? Following the blockbuster success of Blumhouse’s 2022 horror hit, which earned more than $160M worldwide and global acclaim, Universal announces the launch of a sinister new franchise with the release of Black Phone 2. “The Grabber” has big plans? Ethan Hawke, Mason Thames, Madeleine McGraw, Jeremy Davies, and Miguel Mora all return for this sequel, again directed by Scott Derrickson. They’re definitely riffing on A Nightmare on Elm Street with a dash of Dream Warriors thrown in, and the snowy cold setting looks great for this sequel.
Here’s the second official trailer for Scott Derrickson’s horror sequel Black Phone 2:

Ethan Hawke is returning to the most sinister role of his career as The Grabber seeks vengeance on Finn (Mason Thames) from beyond the grave by menacing Finn’s younger sister, Gwen (Madeleine McGraw). As Finn, now 17, struggles with life after his captivity, the headstrong 15-year-old Gwen begins receiving calls in her dreams from the black phone & seeing disturbing visions of 3 boys being stalked at a winter camp known as Alpine Lake. Determined to solve the mystery and end the torment for both her and her brother, Gwen persuades Finn to visit the camp during a winter storm. There, she uncovers a shattering intersection between The Grabber and her own family’s history. Together, she and Finn must confront a killer who has grown more powerful in death & even more significant to them than either could imagine.
