Fear Street: Prom Queen will be available on Netflix from May 23, 2025.
The fictional town of Shadyside, Ohio, returns as the setting for this new story. Prom season is in full swing, and the school's most popular students are desperate to become prom queen. But when some of the candidates disappear under strange circumstances, the mood turns to horror. The mysterious appearance of a new contestant could well be linked to this series of disappearances.
A disturbing preview of the bloodiest prom of the year, in the tradition of slasher films and the Fear Street saga.

With a running time of 1h28, it promises to be fast-paced and effective, in keeping with the spirit of the previous installments in the franchise due to be released on Netflix in 2021.
