The first part of Wednesday season 2 ended on a worrisome note following multiple deaths and a large threat unleashed at Nevermore.
Warning: This story contains spoilers about season 2 of Wednesday.
Wednesday, which premiered in November 2022, is based on the character originally introduced in The Addams Family cartoons. In Netflix’s version, Wednesday (Jenna Ortega) attempts to solve a murder mystery at her new school. The first half of the second season premiered on Wednesday, August 6, and heightened the stakes with Wednesday not determined to keep Enid (Emma Myers) safe after a deadly premonition.
In the final moments of part 1, Wednesday had been seemingly knocked out of a Willow Hill window by her ex-boyfriend and deadly Hyde a.k.a Tyler (Hunter Doohan). Wednesday’s fate was left up in the air as Tyler escaped into the woods, alongside handfuls of other mental institution patients. There’s also this season’s mystery murderer who killed two people in two days but had yet to be unmasked.
Finding love at Nevermore? Wednesday introduced fans to several scene-stealing ships in season 1 — and the show’s cast has since weighed in on their favorites. The hit Netflix series, which premiered in November 2022, explored Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega) as a high school student who is caught between adjusting at school and figuring out […]
Luckily, Wednesday fans have even more to look forward to with the hit series already renewed for season 3. Showrunner Alfred Gough and Netflix chief content officer Bela Bajaria released a statement in July confirming that there is also a Wednesday spinoff in the works.
“It’s something we’re definitely noodling. There are other characters we can look at,” Gough teased before Bajaria added, “There’s a lot to explore in the Addams Family.”
Keep scrolling to find out where each character stands at the end of Wednesday season 2 part 1 now that the episodes are streaming on Netflix:
Wednesday Addams
Some things changed for season 2, but Wednesday Addams largely didn’t. The first part of the second season showed Wednesday adjusting to life in the spotlight as everyone in Nevermore hailed her as a hero. But Wednesday was more focused on finding out who her stalker was (a younger classmate), who killed Tyler’s dad and his former partner (unclear) and what was going on in Willow Hill (Judi had a secret prison and test lab of outcasts).

By the end of part 1, Wednesday was trying to help the outcasts escape when she ran into Tyler in Hyde form. The audience didn’t see what happened before Wednesday was thrown out of the building, which left her fate unknown.
Enid Sinclair
After finally unlocking her wolf side, Enid returned to Evermore a new version of herself. With that came doubts about her relationship with Ajax (Georgie Farmer), whom she avoided for most of part 1 until he got the hint. Instead, Enid grew closer to newbie Bruno and questioned her friendship with Wednesday, not knowing her friend was trying to keep her safe from a possible looming death.
Tyler Galpin
Most of part 1 had Tyler locked up in Willow Hill where Wednesday and later Laurel (Christina Ricci) visited him. Despite attempts to decrease Tyler and Laurel’s bond, his strength as a Hyde was greater than ever. By the end of part 1, Tyler was able to escape from his confinement and his first act of business was attacking his master.
Tyler — in Hyde form — then came face to face with Wednesday and the next thing viewers saw was her being thrown out a window and her ex running for the woods.
Wednesday was the talk of the town when it premiered on Netflix — but not all of the discourse was positive. The series reintroduced fans to a new version of Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega) in November 2022. During season 1, the titular character attempted to master her psychic powers at Nevermore Academy while dealing with […]
Bianca Barclay
This season Bianca (Joy Sunday) had to balance keeping her mother safe and doing what new principal Barry Dort (Steve Buscemi) asked of her when it came to manipulating Morticia Addams (Catherine Zeta-Jones). Vlad Cioplea/Netflix
Laurel Gates
During the first part of season 2 Ricci’s character was brought to Willow Hill as a prisoner after she was previously kept in a separate facility to keep her far away from Tyler. The first reunion didn’t go as planned when Tyler transformed into the Hyde and nearly killed Laurel. She tried to win his favor over again once the outcasts broke out of Willow Hill.
But Laurel’s attempt to help him didn’t work in her favor and the Hyde ultimately chased her down and appeared to kill her — seemingly for good this time.
Morticia Addams and Gomez Addams
Season 2 gave Wednesday’s parents more to do as they moved closer to Nevermore — Laurel’s old residence to be exact — as Morticia helped out at the school. Little did she know that the new principal of Nevermore had something up his sleeve and was using Bianca’s powers as a siren to manipulate Morticia into bringing her estranged mother back into her life.

Pugsley Addams
After playing a smaller role in season 1, Wednesday’s brother was not attending Nevermore too. He had a tough time adjusting to the school — especially when it came to making friends. Pugsley finding and adopting a zombie didn’t exactly help his situation and part 1 wasn’t even over before the monster escaped and ate quite a few brains along the way.
