Scream VI recap
A year later, Sam and Tara have moved to New York, where Tara studies at Blackmore University with Mindy and Chad. A conspiracy theory online says Sam was the real killer in Woodsboro. A new Ghostface leaves masks from earlier killings at crime scenes, and Detective Wayne Bailey, whose daughter Quinn lives with the sisters, takes the case. Kirby Reed, now an FBI agent, shows up to help, and Gale, writing again, is attacked in her apartment and survives. The group finds a shrine in an abandoned cinema full of items from every Ghostface killing, including Billy Loomis's robe. Ghostface attacks on a crowded subway on Halloween, and Chad and Mindy are badly wounded. Sam uses the shrine to set a trap.
