Prime Video didn’t announce that its disturbing (somewhat controversially so) horror series THEM was developed as an anthology when it premiered back in 2021, but the streamer recently confirmed that the second season will focus on a whole new set of characters in a new timeline.

Now, the first full trailer has been released, and it’s pure nightmare fuel.

Titled THEM: The Scare, the season will once again be set in Los Angeles, but will move the time frame forward to 1991. The story centers on LAPD Homicide Detective Dawn Reeve, who is assigned to a new case: the gruesome murder of a foster home mother that has left even the most hardened detectives shaken.

Navigating a tumultuous time in Los Angeles, with a city on the razor’s edge of chaos, Dawn is determined to stop the killer. But as she draws closer to the truth, something ominous and malevolent grips her and her family.

Set to the deceptively cheerful strains of Shanice’s “I Love Your Smile,” the teaser eventually descends into all manner of supernatural terror.

“With THEM: The Scare, we wanted to combine our love of horror with a look at Los Angeles’s rich history and evolution,” says creator, executive producer and showrunner Little Marvin. “This second installment is a new story set in the 90’s, one of the most iconic decades for film, music and fashion, particularly in Los Angeles. I’m also excited about our amazing cast: Deborah Ayorinde returns as a completely new character, Luke James delivers an unforgettable performance and the legendary Pam Grier, who has played so many iconic and beloved roles on screen, makes her return to horror…. We couldn’t have asked for a more fearless group to lead this second installment.”
