The Grabber channels Freddy Krueger to attack Gwen from beyond the grave in the new Black Phone 2<\/strong> clip below, courtesy of IGN<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ethan Hawke<\/strong> returns as the masked serial killer on October 17<\/strong> via Blumhouse and Universal.<\/p>\n

As Finn, now 17, struggles with life after his captivity, his headstrong 15-year-old sister, 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.<\/p>\n

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\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

Together, she and Finn must confront a killer who has grown more powerful in death and more significant to them than either could imagine.<\/p>\n

Scott Derrickson<\/strong> is back in the director\u2019s chair with a script he co-wrote with frequent collaborator C. Robert Cargill<\/strong>, based on characters created by Joe Hill<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In addition to Hawke, Madeleine McGraw, Mason Thames,<\/strong> Miguel Mora,<\/strong> and Jeremy Davies<\/strong> reprise the roles from the first film.<\/p>\n

Demi\u00e1n Bichir<\/strong>\u00a0(The Nun), Arianna Rivas<\/strong> (A Working Man), Maev Beaty<\/strong> (Beau is Afraid), and Graham Abbey<\/strong> (\u201cUnder the Banner of Heaven\u201d) join the cast for the sequel.<\/p>\n

\u201cBlack Phone 2 doesn\u2019t just take a bigger, bolder approach; it\u2019s a complete subgenre shift,\u201d Meagan Navarro wrote in her review<\/a>. \u201cA strong vision and unique interpretation of horror classics, combined with a tremendous cast, ensure Black Phone 2 surpasses its predecessor in just about every way.\u201d<\/p>\n
