‘R.L. Stine’s Pumpkinhead 2’ Coming to Tubi October 2026
A sequel to the 2025 feature adaptation of the same-titled episode from the iconic author’s TV series The Haunting Hour, the horror comedy R.L. Stine’s Pumpkinhead 2 is coming to Tubi this Halloween.
The new sequel “centers on Evan, a student dealing with bullies who finds a forbidden spellbook that revives the ancient curse for his town of Redhaven. This leads the pumpkin-headed children of previous sacrifices to emerge from the earth in hopes of claiming the town during its Harvest Festival. Perhaps the only hope for Redhaven is the return of a witch who is dead set on destroying the book,” as reported today by THR.
Legendary author R.L. Stine says, “Halloween wouldn’t be Halloween without a good story about kids being trapped inside a pumpkin. I’m so happy that we are going to have another pumpkin head adventure on Tubi.”
The first film’s writer/director Jem Garrard (Slay) returns to helm the sequel.
Creature performer Troy James (Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, Hellboy, Channel Zero, Neverknock) played the Scarecrow in the first film.
R.L. Stine’s Pumpkinhead 2 will premiere on Tubi in October.
Watch the trailer for the first film, streaming on Tubi now, below.
