This time, evil refuses to stay buried.
Teenage survivor Finn (Mason Thames), now 17, lives in the long shadow of his childhood trauma—marked forever as the boy who killed his abductor and escaped the grip of the monstrous Grabber. But death is no boundary for true evil. The Grabber, chillingly played again by Ethan Hawke, returns from beyond the grave to seek vengeance—not on Finn, but on his younger sister, Gwen.

Madeleine McGraw reprises her role as Gwen, now 15 and more determined than ever. Disturbing visions and mysterious calls from the infamous black phone haunt Gwen’s dreams, revealing a chilling pattern: three boys hunted at a secluded winter camp called Alpine Lake. As the visions intensify, Gwen and Finn plunge back into the horror that nearly destroyed them.

Compelled by Gwen’s psychic insights, the siblings venture to the snowbound camp during a blizzard, uncovering a dark, deeply personal secret that links The Grabber to their family’s past. What they discover at Alpine Lake will not only test their courage—it will redefine everything they thought they knew about evil, trauma, and survival.
Demián Bichir, Oscar® nominee for A Better Life, joins the cast as the camp’s enigmatic supervisor, alongside Arianna Rivas (A Working Man) as his sharp-witted niece. Miguel Mora returns as a victim’s brother, and Jeremy Davies reprises his role as Finn and Gwen’s troubled father, Terrence. New faces Maev Beaty (Beau is Afraid) and Graham Abbey (Under the Banner of Heaven) round out the ensemble, adding gravitas and intrigue to this harrowing sequel.
Following the massive success of The Black Phone, which grossed over $160 million worldwide and was hailed for its eerie atmosphere and standout performances, Black Phone 2 raises the stakes and deepens the mythology. With Derrickson directing again, this sequel blends supernatural horror and emotional depth for a gripping look at fear and trauma.
Will the phone ever stop ringing? Or is the nightmare just beginning?
