Summary
- New season of Wednesday will focus on eerie stalker mystery with potential cult involvement & fresh characters.
- Fans theorize stalker could be Grandmama, connected to Tyler Galpin, or even Principal Weems hiding in plain sight.
- Creepy text from stalker in season 1 finale leaves Wednesday and fans puzzled, setting stage for dangerous new season.
Of all the tropes that could exist in horror or thriller movies, the stalker is always a winning choice. There are so many story possibilities here, from a main character investigating the threat on their own without the help of authorities to several red herrings appearing. When fans tuned into the Wednesday season 1 finale, they learned that an eerie figure was following Jenna Ortega's character Wednesday Addams.
After the unexpected reveal of the Hyde Monster, it made sense that it would be time for a second mystery. After all, it's hard to believe that Nevermore Academy isn't filled with one dark secret after another, and the surrounding town of Jericho seems just as dangerous and scary. As the next season of the Netflix series gets closer, fans think they have figured out who the Wednesday season 2 stalker could be. While the answer will likely only be revealed in the season finale, viewers have some clever ideas.
Wednesday Season 2 Should Build On One Important Relationship
Wednesday season 2 will have an eerie and riveting mystery, but the new season of the Netflix series should also be about these two characters.
Fans Have Theories About The Stalker In Wednesday Season 2
In one Reddit thread, Redditor @HappyChaosOfTheNorth suggested that several people could be stalking Wednesday. They wrote:
"I think it's multiple people working as a group. Specifically, I think the stalker(s) are cult members of Morningsong."
Bianca's stepfather Gideon is in charge of Morning song, and since this cult was briefly mentioned in the show's first season, it would be interesting if Wednesday season 2 dove deeper into it. However, as Redditor @NydauYT suggested, Wednesday's stalker may be a new person whom fans haven't seen yet. Fans hope several characters will reprise their roles, but with several new cast members, it seems likely that the stalker is one of these fresh characters. Wednesday isn't known for being warm and friendly, and when she meets these new characters, she will likely suspect each of them of being her stalker. She isn't someone who trusts other people easily, to say the least.
Redditor @Due-Comfortable4290 thinks that Grandmama could be Wednesday's stalker and her motive would be "she knew Wednesday would enjoy it." On the one hand, this would be hilarious and would prove that the Addams Family members are as darkly quirky as ever. Wednesday might even laugh it off and agree that her grandma did a great job pranking her. On the other hand, this could disappoint viewers who hoped that Wednesday's stalker would be a sinister character. It would be a shame not to see a final showdown between the two characters.
Redditor @anuzman1m shared the theory that the stalker is somehow connected to Tyler Galpin (Hunter Doohan). Since fans are waiting to see what will happen to Tyler next, it would be powerful if this was true. This is also a good idea since it would tie the two seasons together and build on the Hyde Monster's plotline which captivated viewers. The fan wrote:
"New character who has a connection to Thornhill or Tyler. Tyler's mom isn't dead and wants vengeance. Thornhill's extended family wants vengeance."
Redditor @Kondes thinks that Principal Larissa Weems (Gwendoline Christie) could be the stalker. They wrote she would be a good choice "because everyone thinks she is dead." It's definitely true that she would be able to hide in plain sight for that reason. Some fans agreed and others said that while they don't think Weems is spying on the character, they think she could still be alive. It would be great news if Weems was featured in the second season, whether she's shown as an evil force or more innocent character. Either way, her presence in Wednesday's life would be shocking.
What Was Revealed About The Stalker In Wednesday Season 1?
Wednesday gets a creepy text message from her stalker in the Wednesday season 1 finale, which shows that Nevermore still has a lot of dark secrets. There are no other details, and Wednesday is just as stumped as fans are. While she's intelligent and perceptive, even she had no idea that someone was watching her, which makes her stalker feel even more horrifying. If someone can sneak by Wednesday, they're definitely dangerous.
While of course this classic Addams Family character embraces violence and cynicism, Wednesday doesn't want her life to be in danger and is understandably scared. While fans have enjoyed trying to guess some of season 2's other storylines, the stalker will likely be front and center in every episode. Since there should be more monsters in Wednesday season 2 and a person or creature is watching Wednesday Addams's every move, there's no doubt that the new season will be fun.
