There will be no Sinister 3, but Bughuul may still return

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Bughuul Mr. Boogie Sinister Sinister 2

I thought the 2012 Blumhouse production SINISTER was a great horror film, and I was hyped to check out SINISTER 2 when it was released a few years later. When I did, I was surprised to see how much of a step down it was from its predecessor. I still enjoyed the movie, but the story of Mr. Boogie / Bughuul had lost steam faster than I had expected.

During a recent Twitter Q&A, producer Jason Blum confirmed that SINISTER 3 is not in the cards for his company. When asked "Is SINISTER 3 a possibility?", he replied "Nope". With a frowny face.

However, there is still a chance that Bughuul may return. When another fan commented that they "need to see Bughuul on the big screen again", Blum replied "I was thinking small screen. Maybe."

So there could be some kind of Bughuul-related TV show in our future, if Blum decides to pursue that idea.

Blum has previously mentioned that his company almost did a crossover between their SINISTER and INSIDIOUS franchises. I would definitely check out a movie that had Lin Shaye's INSIDIOUS character investigating Bughuul. That's the idea Blum should pursue before taking SINISTER to TV!

Whether it's a project for the big or small screen, we'll let you know if there's any sort of movement in the world of SINISTER.
