Fear Street: Prom Queen Premieres May 23

Netflix is set to release 'Fear Street: Prom Queen', the latest installment in its horror film series, on May 23, 2025. Based on R.L. Stine’s 1992 book, the film returns viewers to Shadyside High during the 1988 prom season, where a mysterious figure targets prom queen nominees. Directed by Matt Palmer, the film promises a nostalgic 80s slasher vibe with a cast including India Fowler, Suzanna Son, and Chris Klein. This follows the successful Fear Street trilogy released in 2021, which was critically acclaimed for its adaptation of Stine's novels. Prom Queen will continue the franchise's trend of blending teen drama with horror, featuring intense campaigns for prom royalty disrupted by disappearances and murders. The film aims to capture the spirit of classic slashers while resonating with contemporary audiences.
