We’re lucky to have Tori Spelling. One of Scream 2’s most iconic meta jokes — Sidney Prescott predicting that “Tori Spelling would play her in the movie version” — became reality when Spelling starred as Stab’s fictional Sidney.

Now, she’s about to do it again.

This Wednesday, April 21 at 5PM PST, Tori will join a Clubhouse table read of Scream, performing as Sidney Prescott herself.

“Clubhouse table reads are becoming more and more common,” explains Ryan Murphy, project lead and content creator for Your Horror Show, a digital horror anthology. “As an audio-only app, it allows users to communicate or listen freely, providing a unique opportunity to create fun new experiences in the form of audio narratives.”

“It was so much fun!”

Tori took time from her vacation to talk exclusively with HelloSidney.com about revisiting Woodsboro and working with the late Wes Craven.

“It was so much fun! I auditioned for the first Scream and knew I wouldn’t get it because there was a line making fun of me. But it made me laugh, so I went for it. Luckily, being able to laugh at myself paid off because Wes Craven cast me as Sidney in the movie within the movie, Stab,” she recalled.

“I’ve always been a huge horror fan — especially of Wes — so it was an absolute honor to work with him. And that iconic Rolling Stone photoshoot was amazing. Imagine my surprise when I got the cover!”

Meta beyond meta

When asked about returning as Sidney once more, Spelling laughed:

“It’s so meta beyond meta. Love it. I’m very excited!”

Would she do more Stab films within the Scream universe?

“Of course! That’s actually a fantastic idea!”

And when told about the devoted internet cult that celebrates Stab and her character:

“No! Seriously? Tell me everything — and how can I participate?”

Join the table read

Fans can listen to the live Clubhouse performance featuring Tori Spelling and a stellar cast reimagining the original Scream script.

“Most table reads have the cast around a table doing light acting,” Ryan Murphy explained. “Ours will combine reading and performance — complete with sound effects and music cues straight from the movie to create a fully immersive experience. We’ll also have a Q&A afterward about why we love Scream all these years later. We’re working on surprises as we speak — you’ll have to tune in to find out.”
