Author Joe Hill, who wrote the short story "The Black Phone," has explained that The Grabber's return forBlack Phone 2 was set up in the original movie. The upcoming horror sequel, directed by Scott Derrickson, brings back the menacing serial abductor, despite him having been murdered, with Ethan Hawke reprising his role as The Grabber.

During an interview with ScreenRant's Grant Hermanns for Abraham's Boys: A Dracula Story, Joe Hill teased The Grabber returning. Hill confirmed that Hawke's character is dead, but explained that Finney (Thames) has already communicated with ghosts once and that "maybe he isn't as gone as we thought he was."

Hill also revealed there were several aspects of The Black Phone that he recognized as potential for a sequel. He added that a moment from the original movie could tie into Black Phone 2, noting that it's "a trap door" that may have gone unnoticed by others.
