While there isn't much information available, it is expected that both Lauren LaVera and David Howard Thornton will reprise their roles as final girl Sienna Shaw and Art the Clown respectively. Following their epic battle in Terrifier 2 last Halloween, the duo has become the Batman and Joker of the slasher world. Director Damian Leone teased the third film, stating:
“Terrifier 2 achieved incredible success due to the overwhelming demand for fresh and thrilling horror figures like Art the Clown. Its unprecedented theatrical release, marketing strategy, and unwavering determination also contributed to its triumph. In a film industry where taking risks is rare, I will continue to push boundaries in Terrifier 3, and I am eagerly anticipating the moment you witness what awaits Art the Clown."
Brad Miska, the Managing Director of Bloody Disgusting, commented, "Leone's unwavering commitment to satisfying fan expectations has resulted in an entirely independent sequel. Terrifier 3 will feature more gruesome kills, a larger budget, and an even more unhinged storyline."
Art the Clown’s Already a Christmas Icon
Art the Clown is dominating the Christmas season, making us anticipate Terrifier 3 even more. He's putting Mariah Carey's festive spirit to shame. Today, Terror Threads, the horror-themed clothing company, unveiled a brand new collection for the holidays, featuring Art adorning a Christmas tree in his signature blood-soaked style and ruthlessly dismantling Santa Claus, everyone's beloved holiday symbol. Without a doubt, Art is now the king of Christmas. We can't wait to see what Terrifier creator Leone and the rest of the team have in store for us in the next haunting season. Terrifier 2 has already received critical acclaim with an impressive 85% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and achieved a remarkable box office success, raking in $11 million despite its modest $250 thousand budget during its original theatrical run.

As a hard fan of the Terrifier franchise, I am thrilled to hear about the upcoming release of Terrifier 3. The first two films were incredibly well-made and terrifying, and I can't wait to see what Damian Leone has in store for us this time around.
The fact that Terrifier 3 will be set during Christmastime is a really exciting twist, and I'm sure it will make the film even more unsettling. I'm also eager to see how the story will continue for Sienna Shaw, the final girl from Terrifier 2. She's a really strong and resourceful character, and I'm sure she'll be able to give Art the Clown a run for his money. Overall, I'm incredibly excited for Terrifier 3 and can't wait to see it when it comes out in 2024.
