As senior prom draws near, the race to become Prom Queen becomes deadly when a mysterious killer starts picking off prom candidates one by one.

First Look at Fear Street: Prom Queen

Although fans are eagerly awaiting the official trailer, Netflix has released four exclusive images to give them a taste of what’s to come. The first photo shows two young girls running for their lives, pursued by a figure in a red parka wielding an axe. The second image features a bloodied woman staring down the same killer, possibly recognizing them in a moment of terror. The third image captures two girls locked in an intense gaze, their connection uncertain as they face imminent danger. The final image reveals the killer’s ominous presence, flipping through a book of prom queen candidates, surrounded by a collection of weapons.

Fear Street: Prom Queen director and co-writer, Matt Palmer, described the red-cloaked killer as having a “great sense of style” and an “insatiable taste for killing people in grisly ways.” Palmer teased that the film will bring fans back to Shadyside in 1988, where the Prom Queen competition heats up just two days before prom, only to take a deadly turn as one by one, the candidates are murdered.

Fans of 80s slasher films will feel right at home with Fear Street: Prom Queen. Palmer promises a nostalgic slasher experience filled with fun, memorable characters, iconic needle drops, and plenty of dancing—before the killing spree ensues.
