Former WWE Superstar steps into a new nightmare on the big screen
Summary
– The Boogeyman has been cast in a major role in the horror sequel Halloween Candy 2
– He will portray a character known as The Creature in the upcoming film
– The movie is scheduled for release in 2026 and expands the Halloween Candy universe
The Boogeyman has officially entered the world of horror films with a major role in Halloween Candy 2. The former WWE Superstar confirmed the casting through social media, marking a notable move outside the wrestling ring.
He revealed that he will portray a character known as The Creature. Alongside the announcement, he shared a promotional image and a cryptic message that leaned into the dark tone of the project.
The sequel is being produced by Doug Plomitallo’s Scared Stiff Films and is set for release in 2026. The film continues the universe established in the original Halloween Candy and will feature the return of the cult horror character Tiny.
Tiny first appeared in 2009 and has since developed a following through multiple short film sequels. The producers believe the character has the potential to grow into a recognizable horror icon.
The Boogeyman has not wrestled in a high-profile match since late 2025. Earlier that year, he drew attention after publicly calling for one final WWE run, though no return has materialized.
At 61 years old, the Boogeyman continues to evolve his career. This role places him back in the spotlight through a medium that closely matches the eerie persona that defined his wrestling legacy.
