Fans of the horror-thriller Hellbound are in for a treat—Netflix has announced that the highly anticipated second season will drop on October 25.
Directed by Yeon Sang-ho and based on the popular webtoon, the series first made waves with its chilling premise: supernatural beings appear to condemn people to hell, while a rising religious group takes advantage of the chaos.
The first season, which consisted of six episodes, left viewers with plenty of questions. Season 2 promises to pick up right where it left off, diving into the shocking resurrections of those who were previously condemned.

One big change for Season 2 is the casting of Kim Sung-cheol, who will take over the role previously played by Yoo Ah-in, due to Yoo’s ongoing trial for alleged drug use. The rest of the original cast will return to reprise their roles.
“I’m thrilled to reconnect with viewers after three years,” said director Yeon. He teased that the new season will be “packed with intriguing questions” for fans who were hooked by the first season.
Hellbound Season 2 will make its premiere at the Busan International Film Festival early next month before its official release on Netflix. Mark your calendars for October 25!
