Black Phone 2 Surpasses $100M Global Box Office Mark

The horror sequel Black Phone 2 has dominated the North American box office over the Halloween weekend, crossing the $100 million mark worldwide with a total of approximately $105 million. Despite a generally disappointing October and the worst box office weekend of 2025 so far, the film's success stands out as a bright spot, making it Blumhouse's biggest movie of the year. Black Phone 2 earned around $8 million domestically over the Halloween weekend and has collected over $43 million internationally, with strong viewership in countries like Mexico and the UK. The film is on track to surpass the global box office haul of the original Final Destination movie, marking a symbolic passing of the torch in the horror genre. Interestingly, despite its success, Black Phone 2 is headed to video-on-demand after only 18 days in theaters, a relatively short theatrical run compared to similar films. Overall, while the box office landscape remains challenging with low earnings for other films, Black Phone 2's performance signals a significant hit for Blumhouse and the horror genre in 2025.
