      Four years prior, 13-year-old Finn managed to escape and kill his kidnapper, becoming the only survivor of The Grabber. However, true evil knows no bounds … and the phone is ringing once more.

      Ethan Hawke, a four-time Academy Award® nominee, reprises his role as The Grabber, seeking revenge on Finn (Mason Thames) from beyond the grave by threatening Finn’s younger sister, Gwen (Madeleine McGraw).

      As 17-year-old Finn grapples with life after his ordeal, his determined 15-year-old sister Gwen begins to receive phone calls in her dreams from the black phone and has unsettling visions of three boys being hunted at a winter camp called Alpine Lake.

      Determined to uncover the truth and put an end to the terror for both herself and her brother, Gwen convinces Finn to go to the camp during a snowstorm. There, she discovers a devastating connection between The Grabber and her family’s past. Together, they must confront a killer whose power has only grown in death and whose significance to them is deeper than they ever expected.

      The Black Phone 2 is set to hit theaters on October 17th.
