R.L. Stine Confirms The Next 'Fear Street' Film For Netflix Will Be Based on His Book ‘The Prom Queen’
The R.L. Stine renaissance is real people and Netflix is for sure taking advantage. FEAR STREET was a three part major hit for the streamer so of course they would want to get some more Stine content out to the masses.
Stine has taken to Twitter to confirm recent reports that the next Fear Street movie will be based on his book Fear Street: The Prom Queen, published in 1992.
Stine tweets, “I can finally announce that a new Fear Street movie is about to go into production for Netflix. It’s based on my Fear Street book, The Prom Queen. Good news!”
Now this is going to be a stand alone feature and most likely won’t feature any characters from the three other Fear Street stories already on Netflix.
Here’s the official synopsis for the Prom Queen book from Stine…
A spring night…soft moonlight…five beautiful Prom Queen candidates…dancing couples at the Shadyside High prom — these should be the ingredients for romance. But stir in one brutal murder — then another, and another — and the recipe quickly turns to horror. Lizzie McVay realizes that someone is murdering the five Prom Queen candidates one by one — and that she may be next on the list! Can she stop the murderer before the dance is over — for good?
Based on R.L. Stine’s teen horror franchise, Netflix’s “Fear Street Trilogy” debuted in Summer 2021, the three films unfolding one massive story across three weekends of release.
Netflix’s Fear Street franchise thus far includes…
Fear Street Part One: 1994 – A circle of teenage friends accidentally encounter the ancient evil responsible for a series of brutal murders that have plagued their town for over 300 years.
Fear Street Part Two: 1978 – Shadyside, 1978. School’s out for summer and the activities at Camp Nightwing are about to begin. But when another Shadysider is possessed with the urge to kill, the fun in the sun becomes a gruesome fight for survival.
Fear Street Part Three: 1666 – The origins of Sarah Fier’s curse are finally revealed as history comes full circle on a night that changes the lives of Shadysiders forever.
