Viral 2011 Horror Hit Megan Is Missing Just Got a Sequel Series on Instagram
Fifteen years after its initial release, one of the internet's most infamous cult horror movies, Megan Is Missing, has unexpectedly gained a sequel, and fittingly, it's available for free on Instagram.
Nearly two decades after its release, the infamous 2011 horror film Megan Is Missing has received a sequel, this time accessible exclusively on Instagram. The new installment, titled Megan Is Missing: Evil Never Dies, was penned and directed by the film's original creator, Michael Goi. After a secretive release through episodes and teasers, the full series is now freely available online.
Michael Goi explained to Dread Central that the sequel provides him the chance to utilize the vertical format to immerse the audience in the terror of the story. He elaborated, "It brings them closer to disturbing events and makes them part of what is happening to the characters."
Originally released in 2011, Megan Is Missing follows high schoolers Megan and Amy, whose lives descend into a chilling nightmare after Megan connects with an unknown individual online. Presented through found footage, video chats, and webcam feeds, the movie gained notoriety for its unsettling content and grim ending. Although it remained relatively unknown for years, it gained attention in 2020 on TikTok, prompting Goi to issue a public warning about the film's intense scenes.
In the sequel, original actors Rachel Quinn and Amber Perkins reprise their roles as their real-life counterparts, invited to join a podcast. However, the host has malicious intentions for them. The entire 36-episode series is now available for free viewing on Instagram.
