Detective Bailey, Quinn, and Ethan are Richie’s father, sister, and brother, respectively. They wanted revenge on Sam for killing Richie in 2022’s Scream. They were all obsessed with the Stab movies and the original killings, having collected evidence — bloodied t-shirts of victims and all the Ghostface masks included — and research. What’s more, R...
Ghostface’s identity is always the biggest mystery in any Scream movie. Typically, there is more than one killer doing the dirty work. In Scream 6, there are not two killers, but three who are running around New York stabbing people. Ethan becomes a suspect, and it’s easy to see why. One of the biggest clues to him being the killer is his absence d...
There are a lot of deaths in Scream 6. Samara Weaving’s Laura, an associate film professor at Blackmore College, is killed by Jason, a film student who masquerades as Ghostface alongside his roommate Greg. They’re both killed by the real Ghostface killers — though it’s unclear who of the three actually committed the crimes. The Ghostface killers th...
Mindy discusses the “rules” of horror film franchises in a clever and self-aware scene in Scream 6. In it, she says that legacy characters are in danger of dying in franchise sequels, too; they’re no longer safe. However, since Dewey was killed by Ghostface in Scream 5, it would have been redundant to kill off Gale Weathers or Kirby, and it would h...
It wasn’t enough for the Ghostface killersto kill Sam. They wanted to make sure her reputation was tarnished first. Billy Loomis being Sam’s father made her an easy target to pin the murders on — it’s just like Richie originally wanted. Billy was the first killer and, if Sam donned his mask, she might have been the last in the eyes of the world. Sa...
Sam had stopped seeing visions of Billy Loomis, but he reappears to her when she’s staring directly at his mask in the Scream 6’s movie theater shrine because it likely brings back memories about what it felt like for her to kill. It’s also a moment of doubt for Sam, who has tried her best not to lean into the feeling that killing Richie felt right...
Scream 6 has a lot of Ghostface killers. Not only that, but there are several more who wear the mask because it’s Halloween, which makes it difficult to find the real killer. The first two Ghostface killers are Jason and Greg, who donned the mask because they wanted to finish Richie’s movie and get back at Sam, as well as whoever else annoyed them....
Kirby Reed, now an agent with the FBI, returned in Scream 6 after surviving her run-in with Ghostface in Scream 4. Though Gale is still alive and continues reporting, it’s Kirby who has a personal connection with Sam, having gone to Woodsboro High School together. Kirby is closer in age to Sam and the rest of the Core Four, and she quickly becomes ...
Sidney Prescott was absent in Scream 6, with only a mention of an offscreen interaction between her and Gale. Despite the horror movie bringing back Billy Loomis’ mask and referencing the first Scream killer heavily, it seems doubtful that Sidney will return in Scream 7. To be sure, Sidney is forever connected to the Ghostface killer and to Woodsbo...
The Core Four survived alongside Kirby and Gale, but Scream 6 hints there could always be more Ghostfaces. Perhaps Scream 7 will include a killer who wants revenge for the deaths of Jason and Greg, and blames Sam for them. Sam is already hated by online conspiracy theorists, and one of them, such as the college student who harassed Sam on the stree...
