Fear Street: Prom Queen (Soundtrack from the Netflix Film) accompanies the 2025 horror slasher Fear Street: Prom Queen, directed by Matt Palmer and set during the 1988 prom season at Shadyside High. The original score was composed by The Newton Brothers (known for The Haunting of Hill House, Doctor Sleep and other genre work), who crafted a synth-heavy, ‘80s-inspired score that complements the film’s nostalgic setting and suspenseful slasher beats. The soundtrack leans into synthesizer textures and rhythmic motifs to evoke both the era and the tension of the story.
The score album was released May 23, 2025 via Netflix Music, containing 14 original tracks that run approximately 31 minutes and are available on major digital platforms including Apple Music. Key cues include Time to Shine, Where Are the Prom Queens and Killing on the Dance Floor, which mirror the film’s mix of high-school drama and horror set pieces.
In addition to the original score, the film features a rich selection of licensed songs from the 1980s that underscore scenes, enhance period authenticity and drive the soundtrack’s nostalgic tone. Among these are iconic hits such as “White Wedding (Pt. 1)” by Billy Idol, “Never Gonna Give You Up” by Rick Astley, “Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)” by Eurythmics, “Cruel Summer” by Bananarama, “I Think We’re Alone Now” by Tiffany, “Hungry Like the Wolf” by Duran Duran and others reflective of its prom-dance setting.
