The Strangers: Chapter 2 teaser creates a lot of confusion regarding the identities of the killers and how many there are. Renny Harlin promises to answer the mysteries of the 2008 home invasion film while maintaining its popular premise.

The Strangers: Chapter 1of the characters find themselves in slightly different circumstances than in the original, a change that suggests the director is interested in taking the franchise in a completely different direction.
While The strangers Focused only on the isolated house and not the surrounding area, Harlin extends the danger zone to a spooky little town called Venus, Oregon. The town’s characters take on a larger role, as their initial hostility toward the couple suggests a larger conspiracy behind the murders. Everyone on screen becomes a suspect, adding a layer of mystery that Bertino’s film didn’t have. The Strangers: Chapter 2 teaser reproduces chapter 1 of “who doesn’t know” thriller, introducing the possible inhabitants of the town behind the masks. Except, this time, there are two Scarecrows in addition to the two female killers, Dollface and Pin-Up.

The Strangers: Chapter 2 pits Maya against an entire city of suspects

In The Strangers: Chapter 1Madelaine Petsch’s Maya and Froy Gutierrez’s Ryan stopped to eat at Venus on their way to Portland. When the characters entered the town’s restaurant, their luck ran out. Their car broke down and the hostile townspeople were suspiciously ready to help, directing the couple to a garage and a supposed Airbnb. After that, three strangers attacked Maya and Ryan at their place of stay.
