As anticipation builds for ‘Wednesday‘ season 2, new details from star Isaac Ordonez hint at a surprising and sinister twist. Apparently, Pugsley Addams has a mysterious, deep connection with the main villain of the season.
Additionally, for Wednesday, who’s just beginning to understand the value, and pain, of relationships, this season could be her most personal yet. Watching her protect her brother while unraveling the mystery behind a new villain will undoubtedly test her like never before.
Pugsley Will Have A Shocking Connection To New ‘Wednesday’ Villain
In an exclusive interview with ScreenRant, Isaac Ordonez confirmed that not only is his character developing powers but that those powers are tied directly to the new antagonist in ways that may change the Addams Family dynamic forever. Ordonez teases, “My powers and the main villain for this season are connected… They really dive into their connection and their story together.”

For fans who thought Pugsley would simply serve as comic relief or a minor supporting figure, this tease is a complete game-changer. In the season 2 trailer, Pugsley is seen generating electricity with his hands. This is a striking development that echoes Uncle Fester’s signature ability in earlier Addams Family adaptations. However, this new power may not be a playful nod to the past; it might actually be the spark that ignites the central conflict of the season.
Could Pugsley unknowingly be the key to the villain’s rise? Or even worse, could he be manipulated, used, or corrupted? Additionally, this setup mirrors season 1, where Wednesday was deceived by someone she trusted: her favorite teacher, Marilyn Thornhill, who turned out to be the villain. Now, the tables may turn as her brother falls into a similarly deceptive trap.
Horror Takes Center Stage In ‘Wednesday’ Season 2
While the emotional stakes are rising, ‘Wednesday’ season 2 isn’t pulling punches when it comes to horror either. The trailer reveals perhaps the most disturbing visual yet. In it, Wednesday, bound and gagged, sits at a crumbling table surrounded by life-sized dolls. One even turns its head to look at her. She eventually escapes, wielding a knife and whispering the line, “Let’s play dolls.”

The eerie silence of the doll scene, mixed with Wednesday’s grit and grim humor, captures the spirit of Wednesday at its best. It’s disturbing yet captivating. And the fact that Wednesday later presents one of these dolls (apparently made with real human hair) to Enid as a “gift” is the kind of dry horror-comedy moment that keeps the fandom obsessed.
However, the horror doesn’t stop with the dolls. A brief but terrifying glimpse in the trailer shows a masked figure moving teleporting, straight toward the camera. Whether this masked character is the main villain or a henchman remains to be seen. However, the implication is clear: the villains are not just creepy, they’re powerful, possibly supernatural.
The connection between the dolls and this masked villain seems too deliberate to ignore. Additionally, it’s worth noting that Jenna Ortega has teased a more horror-focused season, and this trailer certainly delivers on that promise. While season 1 flirted with gothic elements and spooky aesthetics, season 2 appears ready to embrace full-blown psychological and supernatural horror.
