From final girls to the end of the world, two new trailers for spooky favorites arrived just in time for Halloween.

In Scream 7, Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) returns with a sort-of blasé attitude toward Ghostface, her nemesis of just about 30 years. That is, until her stalker with the ever-changing identity is in her house, threatening her daughter Tatum (Isabel May).

But between Sidney’s safe room and her home security system, the object of Ghostface’s wrath (or desire, rage, whatever) might just be able to outsmart him one more time. Could this be the final outing for one of horror’s most resilient final girls, one way or another? That should depend on the box office returns on this, the 7th entry in the slasher movie franchise, so anything is possible.

Kevin Williamson, wrote the script for the 1996 movie that started the series, and he returns, this time directing a script he co-wrote with Guy Busick. The story is by James Vanderbilt and Busick, who together wrote 2023’s Scream VI.

Courteney Cox, Scott Foley, Mason Gooding, and Jasmin Savoy Brown return for another go at (or turn as) Ghostface. New to the franchise are Joel McHale as Sidney’s husband Mark, Anna Camp, Mckenna Grace, Michelle Randolph, Jimmy Tatro, Asa Germann, Celeste O’Connor, Sam Rechner, Ethan Embry, Tim Simons and Mark Consuelos.

Scream 7 will be terrorizing theaters beginning February 27th, 2026.

Over on streaming television (although you will be able to catch it in theaters for a very short time) the trailer for the final season of Stranger Things shows just how…well, upside-down things are in Hawkins, Indiana. The gates of Hell are open and the evil entity Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower) is poised to usher enough of it into our world to destroy it once and for all. That is, unless the gang of children (now in their mid-20s to early 30s) can stop him.

Everyone who survived last season, including Millie Bobby Brown, Noah Schnapp, Finn Wolfhard, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Priah Ferguson, Natalia Dyer, Charlie Heaton, Maya Hawke, Joe Keery, David Harbour, Winona Ryder and Brett Gelman return to sacrifice everything, perhaps even their lives, in the fight. Or as Netflix puts it:

“Vecna has vanished — his whereabouts and plans unknown. Complicating their mission, the government has placed the town under military quarantine and intensified its hunt for Eleven, forcing her back into hiding. As the anniversary of Will’s disappearance approaches, so does a heavy, familiar dread. The final battle is looming — and with it, a darkness more powerful and more deadly than anything they’ve faced before. To end this nightmare, they’ll need everyone — the full party — standing together, one last time.”

The new season will be released on three separate holiday weekends. Volume 1, the first four episodes, drops on November 26th. Volume 2 (the next three episodes) debuts on Christmas day and The Finale will be both streaming and in theaters beginning on New Year’s Eve (through January 1st only.) Each premiere weekend begins at 5pm Pacific time.
