Summary

Krampus 2 is not confirmed, but director Michael Dougherty has an idea for a sequel involving a group of strangers trapped somewhere. The first Krampus movie had mixed reviews from critics and audiences, but it did well at the box office. The shocking ending of Krampus sets up the potential for a sequel, with the idea of entrapment being explored in Krampus 2.

Krampus 2 receives a story update from director Michael Dougherty after eight years. Released in 2015, the horror-comedy tells the story of a young boy whose bummer Christmas accidentally summons a demonic force Krampus, who punishes those who do not believe in the holiday spirit. Krampus was met with mixed reviews at the time but has had some viewers hoping for a sequel.

Now, Dougherty provides a glimpse into what Krampus 2 might look like. Speaking with Collider, the director mentioned that he has “an idea for a sequel” to Krampus. The idea would potentially involve “a group of strangers who are trapped somewhere.” Check out the quote from Dougherty below:

“We have an idea for a sequel on that one, too. It doesn’t necessarily center around a family as much as it might be about a group of strangers who are trapped somewhere.”

Krampus 2 Is Still Not Confirmed But The Idea Is Enticing

Dougherty notably does not confirm the development of Krampus 2. While the movie had a moderately successful box office run, taking in $61.5 million worldwide against its estimated $15 million budget, it got mixed reviews from critics and audiences alike. On the critic aggregate site Rotten Tomatoes, Krampus scored a Fresh 66% with critics, whereas audiences rated it lower on average, giving it a 51% audience approval rate.

However, Krampus featured a shocking ending that sets up a potential sequel. It initially appears that the horror-comedy went in the conventional direction by allowing the tortured family to finally experience a serene Christmas gathering. However, the ending does not settle for such placidity, instead revealing through blurry distortion and a final camera pullback that the Engel family has been trapped inside a snow globe by the titular creature.

As per Dougherty’s idea, Krampus 2 could play with this idea of entrapment. While the sequel may not follow protagonist Max and his family directly, Krampus 2 could see another world of strangers trapped inside a snowglobe or other Krampus-controlled device. Either way, Dougherty is percolating ideas for an interesting sequel to Krampus.
