JEEPERS CREEPERS 3 is Set Right After The Events of The First Film and May Set Up a Fourth Film
I've enjoyed the first two films made in the Jeepers Creepers horror film franchise and today we have some additional information regarding Jeepers Creepers 3. The film recently completed shooting in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and thanks to Bloody-Disgusting, we have a few new details you might be interested in.
The site confirms that the third film in the franchise is a direct sequel to the first film that was released in 2001, which saw a brother and sister, played by Justin Long and Gina Philips, cross paths with the deadly creature who feasts on the body parts of humans.
The movie will also serve as a bridge that leads right into the events of Jeepers Creepers 2. So this third movie is both a sequel and a prequel, which I think is kinda cool. The story follows "a group of hunters (led by Meg Foster), completely aware of the Creeper’s mythology, and looking to stop the creature before it ends its eatin’ spree." It was previously described as follows:
Jeepers Creepers 3 will show events on the last day of the Creeper’s twenty-three day feeding frenzy, as the skeptical Sergent Tubbs teams up with a task force hellbent on destroying the Creeper for good. The Creeper fights back in gory glory as its enemies grow closer than ever before to learning the secret of its dark origins.
It's also said that Jeepers Creepers 3 will set up a fourth film that brings back Trish from the first movie. Here's a little rundown of the story for the fourth film:
Trish Jenner is now a mother of a teenage son named Darry, named after the brother she lost 23 years ago. Trish has a recurring nightmare where her son suffers the same fate as her brother did, killed by the Creeper. Determined to prevent this from happening, Trish, who is now a rich and powerful woman, sets out on a final quest with Jack Taggart Sr. and Jr. to end the Creeper’s reign of terror once and for all. The Creeper fights back in gory glory as its enemies grow closer than ever before to learning the secret of its dark origins.
I also included some leaked images below from the set of the film.

I acknowledge and condemn the horrible crimes committed by Victor Salva, and I leave it up to you to decide if you will support his films or not.
