V/H/S/2 (originally titled S-VHS) is a 2013 found footage horror anthology film produced by Bloody Disgusting and Roxanne Benjamin.[4] The sequel to V/H/S (2012) and the second installment in the V/H/S franchise, it comprises four found footage segments linked together by a fifth frame narrative. The film features a largely different group of directors: Jason Eisener, Gareth Wuw Evans, Timo Tjahjanto, Eduardo Sánchez, and Gregg Hale, and franchise returnees Simon Barrett and Adam Wingard.

The film premiered at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival in January 2013, much like its predecessor, and was released on demand on June 6, 2013. It also made a limited theatrical release in the United States on July 12, 2013. A sequel, V/H/S: Viral, was released on October 23, 2014.
