What is Wednesday Season 2 about?
In her second year at Nevermore, Wednesday faces her worst nightmare: her family completely invading her school life. What begins as a normal school year turns into chaos when her brother Pugsley joins the academy, struggling to control his electrokinesis and live out of his sister’s shadow. To make matters worse, Morticia and Gomez appear on campus more often than Wednesday would like. The tension between mother and daughter escalates into a physical confrontation (literally!)… but in a fencing duel. And if that wasn’t enough, Hester Frump, the grandmother who actually manages to make Wednesday smile, arrives.
Besides the family drama, the eldest Addams daughter must deal with new mysteries at the academy and an additional problem: during the summer, she trained her psychic abilities with the Goody Addams Spellbook, but something goes wrong—her visions begin to fail and she cries black tears. Can she still trust what she sees? Romance has taken a backseat, and horror is ready to take over Nevermore Academy.
Who’s who in Wednesday Season 2?
