The chilling maternal spirit returns in Mama 2: Mother’s Curse, the long-awaited follow-up to the 2013 supernatural hit. Universal Pictures has just released the teaser trailer for the sequel, promising a darker, more personal nightmare—this time, with a new family caught in the web of grief and vengeance.

Set nearly a decade after the events of the first film, Mother’s Curse follows a grieving widow (played by Naomi Scott) and her two 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren, who move into a remote lakeside cabin in search of peace. But tranquility quickly turns to terror when they discover an ancient doll wrapped in black lace and hair—awakening Mama’s restless spirit once again.

As the trailer teases, Mama isn’t just haunting anymore—she’s hunting. With the haunting tagline, “Now She Wants Yours,” the film explores twisted themes of possession, obsession, and generational trauma.

The film promises bone-chilling sound design, sinister lullabies, and a deeper exploration of Mama’s origin. Judging by the teaser, fans of elevated horror and slow-burning dread will find plenty to scream about.
