Fear Street Part One: 1994

At the end of Fear Street Part 1: 1994, it turns out that the curse of Sarah Fier is far from broken, despite what seems like a victory. After Sam is seemingly saved from the undead killers—who are the reanimated victims possessed or controlled by Sarah—there is a lingering sense that the curse still holds power. A ritual is shown in the film’s final moments, performed by someone dressed in black robes, which results in Sam’s name appearing carved on a cave wall alongside other names of possessed killers. This suggests that breaking the curse isn’t as simple as rescuing someone; the curse is maintained through ongoing rituals, possibly involving the key to Sarah Fier’s power: her severed hand.

Further complicating things, in a quiet post-credits scene, Josh revisits a basement computer where he chats on a spooky message board. There, a brief shot shows a disembodied hand gripping his shoulder, which turns out to belong to Deena. This eerie moment hints that Sarah Fier’s influence persists even after her apparent defeat, and also raises the unsettling possibility that the witch might still be actively reaching into their world—perhaps even controlling or influencing the local kids through modern technology. The story is set to continue in the next films, focusing on the past of Sarah Fier and her cursed history, with the hope that uncovering her full story might provide a way to finally break the curse once and for all. So, while Sam’s fate was temporarily stabilized, the ending leaves open the idea that the curse still lingers, ready to strike again unless the true source of Sarah Fier’s power is destroyed.
