Plot of Fear Street: Prom Queen
Fear Street: Prom Queen is set in the cursed town of Shadyside in 1988 as Shadyside High School's senior class gets ready for the much-anticipated prom night. Lori Granger is an outcast amongst her peers and comes from a troubled family background. She sets out to beat the "Wolfpack," the most popular girls at school, to be prom queen.
When Christy Renault, one of the candidates, is killed the night before prom, things get tense. Christy's murder marks the beginning of the masked killer's rampage as he hunts down the prom queen candidates one by one.
Lori shows up to prom with her best friend Megan, but a joke makes them quarrel with each other. At the same time, more students are killed in grotesque manners. A couple is found dead in a classroom, one student has been electrocuted, and another has had their head cut off.
Lori gets threats and starts to get worried. As the killings continue, it becomes clear that two killers are working together. Lori tries to warn her classmates as she finds out the truth.
As prom night goes on, the killings get worse. In shocking scenes, students are stabbed, sawed, and attacked. It turns out, the killers have something to do with Lori's past, which Megan and Lori find out as they look into the case.
One of the killers is revealed to be Dan, the father of Tiffany, one of the prom queen candidates, and the other is revealed to be her mother, Nancy. Both want to kill Lori because of her family history. Lori kills both of them in a brutal final fight before getting herself to safety. At the end of Fear Street: Prom Queen, Nancy's blood forms the Witch's Mark, which hints at deeper curses still active in Shadyside.
Fear Street: Prom Queen is available to stream on Netflix.
