Black Phone 2 (2025)

Released on October 17, 2025, The Black Phone 2 serves as a direct sequel to the 2021 horror hit, expanding the supernatural mythology established by director Scott Derrickson. The Film Set in 1982, four years after Finney Blake killed the Grabber, the story finds Finney and his sister Gwen still grappling with their past trauma. Gwen begins experiencing vivid psychic dreams of Alpine Lake Camp, a location where her deceased mother once had similar visions regarding missing children in the 1950s. Seeking answers, Finney and Gwen travel to the camp, only to be trapped by a massive blizzard along with a small group of counselors and their friend Ernesto (the brother of Robin Arellano). The supernatural elements escalate when a disconnected payphone at the camp begins to ring; it is the Grabber, now a malevolent ghostly entity fueled by the souls of his earliest victims. The siblings discover a dark secret: their mother did not commit suicide but was actually murdered by the Grabber decades earlier. To stop his spectral reign of terror, Finney and Gwen must locate the remains of the Grabber’s original victims hidden beneath the frozen lake. In a climactic confrontation involving both physical and dream-realm combat, they manage to recover the bodies, stripping the Grabber of his power and dragging his spirit into the depths of the icy water for good. The sequel features the return of the original core cast alongside notable newcomers. Mason Thames reprises his role as Finney Blake, now a resilient teenager, while Madeleine McGraw returns as Gwen, whose psychic abilities take center stage in this installment. Ethan Hawke returns as the Grabber, appearing as a more demonic and grotesque version of the iconic villain. Jeremy Davies returns as their father, Terrence, who is now depicted as a recovering alcoholic attempting to reconcile with his children. New cast members include Demián Bichir as Armando, the supervisor of Alpine Lake Camp, and Arianna Rivas as his niece, Mustang. Miguel Mora returns to the franchise as Ernesto (having played Robin in the first film), and James Ransone appears as Max, the Grabber’s brother, through supernatural flashbacks and spectral encounters.
