The trilogy begins in Shadyside, 1994.
Directed by Leigh Janiak (Honeymoon) and based upon the groundbreaking teen horror Fear Street books by R.L. Stine, Netflix’s Fear Street Trilogy is introducing a new brand of horror to the next generation: one story… told over three films… across 300 years.
In the Fear Street trilogy, “In 1994, a group of teenagers discovers that the terrifying events that have haunted their town for generations may all be connected — and that they may be the next targets. Based on R.L. Stine’s best selling horror series, the trilogy follows the nightmare through Shadyside’s sinister history.”
Fear Street Part 1: 1994 kicks off the trilogy on Friday, July 2, and today Netflix has debuted the Scream-like 5 minute opening sequence featuring “Stranger Things” star Maya Hawke.
In this clip, Hawke’s character is working as a cashier at B. Dalton, and she’s ultimately stalked inside the retro ’90s mall by a killer wearing a skull mask. Check it out down below!
And keep your eyes peeled for a cameo from one of Stine’s Fear Street books…

R.L. Stine said in a recent statement, “Fear Street fans are in for a treat – and some major surprises. Readers know that the book series is rated PG. But the movies are rated R. That means a lot more thrills – and a lot more terror! I have seen Leigh Janiak’s epic trilogy releasing on Netflix in July and I can tell you the scares and the SCREAMS are more than I ever expected. What fun to see the horrors of Shadyside come to life!”
