Universal has dropped the second trailer for the horror sequel Black Phone 2 [BPHO2]. Ethan Hawke [EHAWK] returns as The Grabber who seeks vengeance against Finn (Mason Thames [MTHAM]) from beyond the grave by menacing his younger sister, Gwen (Madeleine McGraw). Directed once again by Scott Derrickson [SDERR], Black Phone 2 opens in theaters on October 17th.
Four years ago, 13-year-old Finn killed his abductor and escaped, becoming the sole survivor of The Grabber. But true evil transcends death … and the phone is ringing again. 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 and seeing disturbing visions of three 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 and more significant to them than either could imagine.
