Prime Video has renewed Mike Flanagan ’s horror series Carrie: A practical reader guide

Prime Video has renewed Mike Flanagan ’s horror series Carrie for a second season, following a strong debut that reportedly took it to the top spot on the streaming platform in more than 105 countries. Premiering on October 7, 2026, the series gives Stephen King ’s famous horror story a new spin, taking its troubled teenage protagonist beyond the events of the original novel. Carrie White’s story is getting another chapter. The renewal comes as the first season leaves viewers with several unanswered questions.

“For 50 years, audiences have known and gravitated to Carrie White’s story. All eight episodes of Carrie Season 1 are available to stream on Prime Video. “I can’t wait for audiences to get to see what’s down the road for Carrie White. Stephen King, who is also an executive producer on the series, is equally enthusiastic about what lies ahead. “Mike Flanagan and I are excited about what comes next.

From the beginning, we imagined a story that goes far beyond the prom, and I’m incredibly grateful for Stephen’s trust and support in exploring what comes next,” said showrunner Mike Flanagan. It’s bound to be thrilling,” he said.
