The bioexorcist Beetlejuice is back and ready to haunt a whole new generation of the living.
The official trailer for the long-awaited sequel, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, finally dropped on Thursday, with stars Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder and Catherine O’Hara returning to their iconic roles.
Years have passed since the events of the original film, and now Lydia Deetz (Winona) is the mother of a teenage daughter, Astrid (Jenna Ortega).
Lydia assumed she would never hear from the mischievous entity again, until her daughter stumbles upon an advertisement for a ‘Bio Exorcist’ in her attack.
It is Astrid who ends up bringing Beetlejuice back by saying his name three times despite her mother’s stern warnings.

“When I was a demon, a trickster demon terrorized our entire family and tried to force me to marry him,” Astrid warns. “I thought he was gone forever until you found this in the attic,” she said, referencing the sign.
‘Who is Beetlejuice?’ Astrid asks her mother.
‘Never say that name!’ Lydia says angrily to her daughter.
But after her daughter repeats her name, Lydia pleads: ‘No, Astrid! I’m serious!’
“If you say his name three times, he’ll appear,” he practically whispers.
Astrid nonchalantly says the demon’s name for the third time. “Beetlejuice,” she says, summoning the iconic entity.
Beetlejuice, dressed in his iconic black and white suit, appears before the duo. “The juice is loose,” he says.
Now Lydia Deetz (Ryder) is the mother of her teenage daughter Astrid (Jenna Ortega), who brings back Beetlejuice despite her mother’s warnings.
