The Strangers

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. To carry it to another device, move the code below.

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.

Drag a SagaList image here, or .

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.

Restoring replaces the progress currently saved on this device for the franchise the code belongs to.
