Blumhouse’s teaser for *The Black Phone 2* is profoundly unsettling, not solely due to its wintry backdrop.

Ethan Hawke reprises his role as the sinister antagonist, The Grabber, hunting down 17-year-old Finn (Mason Thames, also returning), the youth who managed to escape his basement dungeon in the original film. Finn begins to experience visions of boys being hunted at a winter camp, Alpine Lake, suggesting he hasn’t fully evaded The Grabber.

*The Black Phone 2* showcases the return of the original film’s *Sinister* writing duo, C. Robert Cargill and Scott Derrickson, as they continue their take on Joe Hill’s short story.

*The Black Phone 2* hits theaters on Oct. 17.
