As a horror enthusiast who has survived countless nights watching slasher films, I can confidently say that the return of Fear Street is like a beacon of light in the darkest corners of my soul. Having binge-watched the trilogy in 2021 and being left on the edge of my seat with the cliffhanger ending of Part Three: 1666, I can hardly contain my excitement for the forthcoming Prom Queen installment.
The Fear Street film trilogy, recognized as one of the top horror-thriller series in recent times, has left its mark. Exciting news for fans is the announcement of a fourth installment titled Fear Street: Prom Queen, scheduled to debut on Netflix in 2025. Previously, all three movies in the series were rolled out on Netflix in July 2021, with each one following the other weekly. After the release of Fear Street Part Three: 1666, director Leigh Janiak hinted at a desire to extend the storyline, aiming to produce a slasher film set during the 1980s. By November 2023, Netflix’s Head of Film, Scott Stuber, clarified that it would be a standalone movie instead of being an extension of the prequel events.
In the third movie, it appeared as though evil had been defeated due to the persistent actions of Sarah Fier (Kiana Madeira), Ziggy (Gillian Jacobs), and Hannah (Olivia Scott Welch). However, the ending hints at something different. As the closing credits unfold, a shadowy character seizes the cursed book, suggesting that someone else knows about it and plans to exploit it for nefarious ends.
The fact that the fourth movie was stated to be a standalone doesn’t guarantee that the ending of Fear Street Part Three: 1666 won’t be explored at all. Instead, we might see the story told through different characters, as evidenced by the addition of new cast members for the sequel.
A significant portion of the upcoming movie “Fear Street: Prom Queen” has been revealed, as Netflix has announced some of the main actors who will be part of the next installment in the series. Among them is India Fowler, recognized for her past roles in shows like “The Nevers” and “Insomnia”, along with Suzanna Son (from “Red Rocket”), Fina Strazza (“Paper Girls”), David Lacono (“The Summer I Turned Pretty”), Ella Rubin (“The Idea of You”), Chris Klein (“American Pie”), Lili Taylor (“Manhunt”), Katherine Waterston (“The End We Start From”), and Ariana Greenblatt (“Avengers: Infinity War”).
Furthermore, Netflix unveiled the formal summary for ‘Fear Street: Prom Queen’, accompanied by an intriguing poster that captures its essence. Take a look at it here:

Fear Street Returns to Entertain Horror and Slasher Fans Alike
The Fear Street movies offer a thrilling blend of horror and slasher genres, with the second film, “Fear Street Part Two: 1978,” standing out as it portrays a murderer’s rampage at Camp Nightwing, transforming a peaceful summer camp into a survival nightmare. Likewise, the fourth movie promises to be an exciting horror-slasher flick, given its intriguing premise involving the vanishing of students from Shadyside High School.
As a movie enthusiast, I can confidently say that Matt Palmer’s masterpiece, “Fear Street: Prom Queen,” underscores the chilling truth that evil persists in Shadyside. Characters like Sarah Fier remain our beacon of hope in the fight against this relentless darkness. Here’s to hoping this serves as a stepping stone for something even more captivating, perhaps another enthralling trilogy.
