Two films, then a trilogy shot as one film and released in three pieces across two years.

Where to start with The Strangers

The 2008 film stands completely alone. The three Chapter films are one story that was shot as a single production and cut into three, so they are best treated as one long film rather than as a series.

  1. 1
    The Strangers (2008) The Strangers

    Eighty-six minutes, almost no explanation, and it opens on a card claiming a real date. Its whole effect depends on never learning who the people in the masks are.

  2. 2
    The Strangers: Chapter 1 (2024) The Strangers: Chapter 1

    The start of a three-part story built specifically to answer the question the 2008 film refuses to. It ends in the middle of itself, so do not start it alone.

  3. 3
    The Strangers: Chapter 2 (2025) The Strangers: Chapter 2

    The middle third of that same production, released sixteen months later. It picks up directly and assumes you have not forgotten anything.

Then what? Chapter 3 came out in February 2026 and finishes it, so the trilogy is complete and best watched in one sitting. Prey at Night is optional: it is a direct sequel to nothing in particular and shares only the masks. If you want the short version, watch the 2008 film on its own and treat the three Chapters as a separate evening.

A suggested way in, not an official one. The full list is below: tick anything off in either place.

Sync & backup

Your progress is saved on this device automatically. The code below takes a copy out and puts it back. Moving a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is part of the subscription.

The code holds only this franchise. The link opens the tracker with your progress already filled in, good for showing someone where you're at. The image is a picture you can keep anywhere: scan the code on it with a phone, or drag the file back in below.

Every franchise you have touched, in one code.

Scan it with another device's camera, or paste the code in below. It never leaves your browser.

This reads the progress stored inside the picture, so nothing has to be retyped. If the image has been through a messaging app it may have been re-encoded and lost that: scan the code on it instead, or copy the code printed along the bottom.

Takes either kind of code. A single franchise code replaces that franchise, on any device. An everything code merges by default, so nothing you have ticked on this device is lost. Putting a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is the part an account pays for.

Read only. This never changes what you have saved, and nothing leaves your browser. The code has to be their code for this same franchise: codes do not carry a name, so one from somewhere else may not be recognised as wrong.
