Plot details of Wednesday so far
Wednesday season 2’s plot remains largely undisclosed, but showrunners Al Gough and Miles Millar describe it as “darker and more complex,” with Wednesday facing new mysteries and old adversaries at Nevermore Academy.
The teaser trailer suggests a jailbreak involving Tyler, now a Hyde, and introduces supernatural elements like a hairy doll and an ogre-like monster. Jenna Ortega told Variety the season leans into horror, with a slasher-inspired episode.
Season 1 followed Wednesday Addams, a psychic teen, at Nevermore Academy. She investigated murders linked to a monster, revealed as Tyler Galpin, a Hyde controlled by teacher Laurel Gates. Wednesday’s visions tied the killings to her parents’ past. She befriended Enid, a werewolf, and clashed with Bianca, a siren.
The season ended with Gates defeated, Tyler captured, and Nevermore closed for investigation. Wednesday received a cryptic text from a stalker. Season 2 begins with her return to Nevermore, tackling a new supernatural mystery.
