Who dies in the sequel?

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice The film effortlessly switches between horror and comedy elements to tell a compelling story. It invites the audience once again to Winter River, Connecticut, where unusual and supernatural things are quite common. As people die and supernatural entities cease to exist often in this franchise, people want to know about the deaths in Beetlejuice 2.

Here’s everything you need to know about what happens to Betelgeuse and others in the sequel.

Does Betelgeuse die in Beetlejuice 2?

Betelgeuse (aka Beetlejuice), played by Michael Keaton, is a ghost/demon from the Neitherworld, so he technically can’t die. However, the ending partly implies that he is destroyed. Astrid (Jenna Ortega) proves that Betergeuse’s contract with Lydia violates what’s mentioned in the Handbook for the Recently Deceased, and Lydia chants his name three times. This causes Betelgeuse to pop like a balloon. But, towards the end of the film, Lydia has a vivid nightmare in which she sees the trickster entity again, indicating that it might still be out there somewhere, and Lydia has only just succeeded in banishing it.
