Amber Freeman is the secondary antagonist of the 2022 slasher film Scream, the fifth installment of the Scream franchise.
She is Tara Carpenter's former best friend-turned-second arch-nemesis and Richie Kirsch's accomplice and secret girlfriend. She became obsessed with the original Stab film after moving into Stu Macher's former house, but was not fond of the sequels. After being disgusted with Stab 8, simply known as Stab, she met Richie on a Stab subreddit where they devised a plan to create a "requel" to the original Stab, using the Carpenter Sisters as the basis for the movie (Tara as the victim, and Sam as the villain). On the 25th anniversary of the original 1996 Woodsboro Murders, they put their plan into motion and lure Sam back to Woodsboro by targeting Tara.
