Source plot synopsis — includes the ending

Four years after the events of the living nightmare of Jennifer Tilly and the killing of Chucky, a mysterious package arrives at the home of Sarah Pierce and her paraplegic daughter Nica. Inside, they find a "Good Guys" doll. Confused, Sarah throws the doll away. That night, Nica is awakened by Sarah screaming and encounters her corpse; the death is ruled a suicide.
Nica is visited by her older sister, Barb, her husband Ian, daughter Alice, live-in nanny Jill (with whom Barb is secretly having an affair), and priest Father Frank. Alice discovers Chucky and bonds with him. That night, Chucky secretly poisons Father Frank. Becoming sick, he leaves and is decapitated in a car accident. Police officer Stanton heads to the Pierce house, knowing Father Frank was visiting.
While the family watches old home movies, Nica notices someone peculiar in the footage. She researches Chucky and learns that he was sent from an evidence depository. She finds news reports online of previous murders linked to him, along with a picture of Charles Lee Ray, Chucky's human form. She recognizes Ray as the peculiar man from their home movie.
Chucky fatally electrocutes Jill. Barb leaves to look for Alice and awakens Ian, who reveals that he placed a hidden camera in Chucky and knows of her affair. In the attic, Barb finds Chucky and discovers he has been concealing stitches and wounds on his face beneath a layer of plastic. He comes to life and stabs her in the eye before chasing Nica.
Nica wakes up Ian, who tries to escape with her. However, when she grabs an axe to defend herself, Ian accuses her of being the killer. Nica suffers a heart attack and passes out, and then she awakens taped up by Ian. After Chucky murders Ian with the axe, Nica frees herself but is thrown off the balcony in the main hall. She asks why he murdered her family and Chucky explains that when he was human, he was a friend of their family and in love with Sarah. In 1988, he murdered Nica's father and kidnapped Sarah, but was found by the police. Believing Sarah led them to him, Charles stabbed her in the stomach, resulting in Nica's paraplegia. He then fled, leading to his death.
In an ensuing struggle, Nica gets the upper hand and stabs Chucky. However, he reanimates as Stanton arrives. Nica is arrested, found guilty of the murders, and is institutionalized. Stanton leaves to deliver Chucky to an unknown buyer, only to be murdered by Tiffany Valentine, who mails Chucky to Alice. After smothering Alice's grandmother, Chucky begins to enact a voodoo chant to transfer his soul into Alice's body.
In a post-credits scene, Chucky is mailed to Andy Barclay, now an adult. However, Andy surprises him first and shoots him with a shotgun.
