Per a reliable 4chan leaker, the main antagonist in the horror sequel is going to be Nightmare, a being that feeds on fear. But that’s not all, as Agatha Harkness, a sorceress gifted in witchcraft and disciple of Nightmare, and Shuma Gorath, who’s, uh, a giant eyeball, will also be showing up. Their presence is apparently what’s driving Wanda crazy, too.

I’m not a big comics guy, nor do I like spoiling a lot for myself, but a quick, cursory Wikipedia gander at Nightmare’s profile has me interested, revealing that he rules some kind of Dream Dimension and all of his powers are fear-based. Also, it seems that Shuma Gorath is even cooler and more than just a floating eyeball. Rather, he’s a floating eyeball with tentacles.

Honestly, not having read the comics, I like going into MCU movies as cold as possible so that, even in lieu of spoiler-filled trailers and rude jerks on Twitter, I can walk into a film and be genuinely surprised. Cap getting Mjolnir? I had no idea that was a thing, and that was real fun to experience fresh.

So, please take my potential exposure to knowledge as a great sacrifice for you, the reader. Let’s just hope I don’t have the rest of the plot of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness spoiled for me before it hits theaters on May 7th, 2021.
