Netflix has released the final teaser for The Midnight Club, Mike Flanagan’s coming-of-age supernatural horror drama that will be available for streaming on October 7. The video is presented as a promotional advertisement in which Heather Langenkamp’s Dr. Georgina Stanton welcomes you into Brightcliffe Hospice. It also continues to highlight the different kinds of terror that the young Brightcliffe patients will be facing throughout their stay at the mysterious hospice.
Based on Christopher Pike’s 1994 novel, The Midnight Club is set in Brightcliffe Hospice, a hospice for terminally ill teenagers, where a group of patients begins to gather together at midnight to share scary stories. The group makes a pact, swearing that whichever of them dies first will contact the others from beyond the grave.
The limited series will star horror icon Heather Langenkamp (A Nightmare at Elm Street films) as she plays the role of an enigmatic doctor who runs the hospice. Joining her are Adia, Igby Rigney, Ruth Codd, William Chris Sumpter, Aya Furukawa, Annarah Shephard, and Sauriyan Sapkota, who will all portray “the titular club of terminally ill young adults.” It will also feature Zach Gilford, Iman Benson, Larsen Thompson, Matt Biedel, Crystal Balint, William B. Davis, Crystal Balint, and Patricia Drake.
“We have a lot of freedom to make all the stories that the kids are telling each other more completely different. Something from the 70s, or the sci-fi thing, or more of a horror thing” – Axelle Carolyn, director of episodes 6 & 7 of THE MIDNIGHT CLUB. pic.twitter.com/FWmaZc1TgA
