Wednesday Returns Darker and Deadlier in Season 2: Enid's Fate, New Villains, and a Deeper Mystery
Okay, have you seen the new trailer for Wednesday Season 2, Part 1 ? Because wow — things are about to get much darker, messier, and more deliciously twisted. Jenna Ortega is back as the brooding, brilliant Wednesday Addams, and this time, she’s not just solving a mystery — she’s racing against time to save her best friend, Enid. And get this — she believes Enid’s death might be her fault.
In the trailer, we see Wednesday returning to Nevermore Academy — not out of sentiment, of course, but because something wicked is brewing. During one of her increasingly erratic psychic visions, she foresees Enid’s death, and it completely shakes her. “Enid dies, and it’s all my fault,” she says. That’s the emotional hook that launches the new season: a friendship deepened, tested, and threatened by fate.

This season is digging into relationships more than ever — especially Wednesday’s complicated bond with Enid and her mother, Morticia. And let me tell you, things are far from picture-perfect. Morticia seems to know more about Wednesday’s black tears — which start dripping from her eyes whenever her psychic powers glitch — than she’s letting on. It’s eerie, it’s emotional, and it raises so many questions.
And it’s not just the same old Nevermore. There's a new headmaster, Principal Barry Dort, played by Steve Buscemi, and his approach to "outcast pride" is very different from the late Principal Weems. The whole school feels like it’s under new — and slightly unhinged — management. Meanwhile, Agnes DeMille, a new character with fiery red braids and intense admiration for Wednesday, adds a quirky new flavor. Also, surprise — Pugsley’s now at Nevermore too, meaning the Addams family drama is going full throttle. Expect Morticia and Gomez to appear more, much to Wednesday’s horror.
Plus, can we talk about Wednesday being popular now? That’s her personal nightmare. Ortega herself called the Nevermore social scene a “living hell,” and I completely believe her. Imagine Wednesday Addams being swarmed by fans. It’s the perfect kind of chaotic irony.
But maybe the most intriguing layer? The arrival of Grandmama Hester Frump, Morticia’s mother. She’s a force of her own and brings even more tension into this already tangled web of Addams family dynamics.
Executive producer Tim Burton promises a story that’s not just visually surreal but rooted in real, painful, relatable relationships. That’s what makes Wednesday so good — it’s spooky and weird, sure, but it’s also grounded in emotional truth.
Season 2 Part 1 premieres on August 6 , with Part 2 following on September 3 . If you thought Season 1 was intense, just wait. Wednesday’s world is expanding, and with higher stakes, glitching powers, black tears, and family secrets bubbling to the surface, this season is shaping up to be a glorious descent into beautifully Gothic chaos.
Get ready. Things are about to snap — in the worst (and best) way.
