Some phones never stop ringing. The haunting sequel to the critically acclaimed horror phenomenon, Black Phone 2 comes home to 4K UHD, Blu-ray™ and DVD on January 19, 2026 from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment in partnership with Spirit Entertainment.
Director Scott Derickson (Sinister, The Exorcism of Emily Rose) continues the nightmare with darker, deadlier, and more terrifying scenes than ever before as Ethan Hawke (First Reformed) returns to his most disturbing role as deranged serial killer The Grabber opposite Mason Thames (How to Train Your Dragon franchise, Incoming) in his breakout feature film role as Finn. Expanding on the original short story by Joe Hill, this unmissable sequel comes home with all-new bonus content, including seven deleted scenes and in-depth behind-the-scenes featurettes, bringing home even more intensity and shocking new scares and secrets.
True evil transcends death and the black phone rings again as The Grabber (Hawke) torments Finn (Thames) from beyond the grave by menacing his sister Gwen (Madeline McGraw; Toy Story 4, “Secrets of Sulphur Springs”). Haunted by horrific visions, the teens set out to stop their psychological torture only to uncover a disturbing secret as they confront a killer who has only grown more powerful in death.
In our four-star review of the film Matt said “Ultimately, Black Phone 2 delivers a fantastic and sometimes scary sequel to the hit original film. While it takes a while to get going, when it does it does so with a good pace and some entertaining set pieces. The game against The Grabber has now changed so whether or not we see him again remains to be confirmed but they stuck the landing with this one just in time for the Halloween Season!”
A Crooked Highway production, the film also features outstanding performances from a talented ensemble cast including Demián Bichir (The Nun, A Better Life) Miguel Mora (The Black Phone), Jeremy Davies (“Justified”), and Arianna Rivas (A Working Man). Produced by Emmy®-winning producer Jason Blum (The Invisible Man, Get Out, M3GAN), co-written and co-produced by C. Robert Cargill (Doctor Strange, The Gorge), and co-written and executive produced by Joe Hill, the film’s supernatural elements and eerie, atmospheric setting at a deserted, snowed-in church camp high in the Colorado mountains, combine to weave a terrifying journey filled with disturbing isolation and terrifying tension.
