While we wait for Season 2, Netflix announced earlier this month that they’re bringing a brand new holiday episode of “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” to the table in December. Titled “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina: A Midwinter’s Tale,” the episode will arrive on December 14.
Via Deadline today, we’ve learned that Mckenna Grace (“The Haunting of Hill House,” Annabelle 3) will be starring in the holiday special as “Li’l Sabrina,” a pre-teen version of the teenage witch played by Kiernan Shipka. “While the Church of Night celebrates the Winter Solstice, Li’l Sabrina goes out of her way to ask Santa for something special.”
Additionally, Alexis Denisof and Jedidiah Goodacre have joined the show for its second season. Denisof will play Adam Masters, the boyfriend of Mary Wardwell. Handsome and charming, Adam returns to Greendale after a stint overseas working with Physicians Without Frontiers—unaware that his fiancé has been taken over by the demoness Madam Satan.
Goodacre will play warlock Dorian Gray, the owner of Dorian’s Gray Room, an exclusive nightclub. He is an enigmatic gentleman of an indeterminate age and is very good at keeping secrets, especially his own — a cursed portrait he hides from prying eyes.
But first, in the holiday episode…
“Like all covens, The Church of Night celebrates the Winter Solstice, when families gather around the Yule Fire to sing pagan carols and tell ghost stories. But the holidays are also a time for guests and visitors—both welcome and unwelcome— you never know what might come down the chimney…”
