Fans of the Terrifier franchise have reason to celebrate after a huge update about the upcoming fourth installment was revealed. Director Damien Leone took to Instagram to share the exciting news, confirming that Terrifier 4 is officially in the works and will serve as the final chapter of the brutal horror saga.
Marking his birthday, Leone posted an image of the blood-splattered script, along with a message that left fans eagerly anticipating what’s to come. “The script for Terrifier 4 is under way and it is shaping up to be the most epic, horrifying, thrilling, emotional and satisfying conclusion to the Terrifier saga,” Leone wrote. He further teased, “I will finally reveal Art’s origin in this entry. Thank you all again.”
Art the Clown, the sinister figure at the heart of the Terrifier franchise, has been a fan-favorite for his terrifying performances. The upcoming film promises to dive deeper into his backstory, something fans have eagerly awaited since the first film.
Leone’s announcement sparked even more excitement when Lauren LaVera, who portrayed Sienna Shaw in Terrifier 2 and Terrifier 3, hinted at her return to the franchise, commenting on Leone’s post: “Can’t wait.”
While Terrifier 3 has already garnered attention for its extreme content—described as “the most offensive outing for Art the Clown yet”—Leone has made it clear that Terrifier 4 will conclude the saga in a truly unforgettable way.
The director had previously hinted at a fourth film during a Q&A session, confirming that Terrifier 4 was in development. However, he admitted to GamesRadar+ that he had revealed the news a bit prematurely, sharing his concerns about fitting everything he wanted into a single movie. Now, fans are left wondering whether the conclusion will be a one-movie finale or the start of an even more expansive story.
With its chilling promises and gruesome origins, Terrifier 4 is already one of the most anticipated horror films of the year, and fans can look forward to more twisted thrills when it finally hits the big screen.
