👑 Fear Street: Prom Queen (2025): Cast, Plot, Release Date & Everything You Need to Know About the Slasher Sequel

👑 Fear Street: Prom Queen – Blood, Ballots, and a Killer Prom Night

Coming to Netflix on May 23, 2025

"Winning just might be the death of you." That’s the chilling tagline for the latest installment in the Fear Street universe — Fear Street: Prom Queen. Directed by Matt Palmer and based on the classic 1992 Fear Street novel by R.L. Stine, this slasher flick takes us back to 1988, where the stakes at Shadyside High’s prom are literally life and death.

🩸 Welcome Back to Shadyside

The cursed town of Shadyside returns in full retro horror glory. This time, the carnage descends on the biggest night of the school year: prom.

In 1988, Shadyside High is buzzing with prom fever. The glitter, the gowns, the gossip — and of course, the ruthless campaign for Prom Queen. But as the "It Girls" jockey for the crown, the competition turns deadly. One by one, candidates begin to disappear. Is it a jealous rival? A supernatural curse? Or something even darker?

Enter Lori Granger (India Fowler), a sharp but underestimated outsider who finds herself thrust into the blood-soaked spotlight. With help from unexpected allies, she’ll have to navigate mean girls, high school politics, and a very real killer if she hopes to survive prom night.

🎥 The Fear Street Legacy Continues

After the runaway success of the original Fear Street trilogy on Netflix, Prom Queen takes a more intimate, slasher-centric

approach — reviving the teen scream energy of ‘80s horror while staying rooted in the Fear Street mythos.

Director Matt Palmer, co-writing with Donald McLeary, crafts a tense, neon-drenched nightmare filled with nostalgia and nerve-shredding suspense. Expect locker room secrets, prom night betrayals, synth-soaked scares, and a whole lot of blood on the dance floor.

👑 Cast of Queens (and Suspects)

• India Fowler as underdog protagonist Lori Granger

• Fina Strazza as the glamorous Tiffany Falconer

🕯️ Prom Night, 1988: A Perfect Storm

Cinematographer Márk Györi bathes the film in vintage ‘80s style, while The Newton Brothers’ eerie score builds a tension that never lets go.
