Netflix has released a set of photos from its upcoming series The Midnight Club, based on the 1994 novel of the same name by Christopher Pike. Netflix’s adaptation is scheduled to premiere on October 7.
A synopsis is as follows: “At a hospice with a mysterious history, the eight members of the Midnight Club meet each night at midnight to tell sinister stories–and to look for signs of the supernatural from the beyond.” Based on these new photos, and a previously released trailer from earlier this summer, the show is likely set in the 1980s–so will be perfect for Stranger Things fans who are still in withdrawal after the long wait and quick binging of Season 4.
Featuring a younger cast than we’re used to from co-creator Mike Flanagan (The Haunting of Hill House, Haunting of Bly Manor), the series stars Igby Rigney (Blue Bloods), William Chris Sumpter (Power), Aya Furukawa (The Cabin in the Woods), Adia (Danger Love Story), Annarah Cymone (Caged), Sauriyan Sapkota (Grey’s Anatomy), Zach Gilford (Friday Night Lights), Samantha Sloyan (The Haunting of Hill House), and Matt Biedel (Narcos: Mexico). Heather Langenkamp, who starred in the original Nightmare on Elm Street, will play the “enigmatic doctor” who runs the home.
After The Sandman‘s highly-anticipated release earlier this month, The Midnight Club and Cobra Kai Season 5 are among the highlights for the rest of this year on Netflix.
The Midnight Club premieres October 7 on Netflix.
