Fans of the iconic slasher franchise have reason to celebrate: Universal Pictures and Blumhouse just dropped the official teaser for Halloween (2025), and it promises the terrifying return of Michael Myers — this time with a new generation of scream queens, led by Jenna Ortega.

The 55-second teaser, released on YouTube and social media late last night, opens with haunting piano notes over darkened shots of Haddonfield, Illinois. A voiceover whispers, “You can’t escape what’s been waiting…” before cutting to quick flashes of Michael Myers’ signature mask, a bloodstained knife, and terrified townspeople barricading their homes.
