Netflix Midnight Club

Christopher Pike‘s 1994 novel The Midnight Club is becoming a Netflix series, with Mike Flanagan (“Haunting of Hill House,” Doctor Sleep) as co-creator. Flanagan is adapting the book (and other Pike stories) alongside Leah Fong (“Once Upon a Time”), and Flanagan will be finding himself in the director’s chair. But he’s not the only director for the new series.

Taking to Twitter over the weekend, Flanagan announced the other directors involved in “The Midnight Club,” including “The Haunting of Bly Manor” director Axelle Carolyn.

The full lineup includes…

  • Emmanuel Osei-Kuffour (Black Box)
  • Axelle Carolyn (“Bly Manor,” “Creepshow”)
  • Viet Nguyen (“Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”)
  • Morgan Beggs (“Once Upon a Time”)
  • Michael Fimognari (To All the Boys: Always and Forever)

The book “takes place at Rotterdam Home, a hospice for terminally ill teenagers. A group of patients begin to gather together at midnight to share scary stories. They eventually make a pact that whichever of them dies first will contact the others from beyond the grave.”

Leah Fong will executive produce with Flanagan, along with Julia Bicknell. Attached writers at this time include Elan Gale, James Flanagan, and Chinaka Hodge.

The slasher-themed relaunch of “Pretty Little Liars” continues this coming May with “Pretty Little Liars: Summer School,” and you can slash into the official trailer down below.

“Summer School” begins on Max on May 9, 2024.

The Max Original series from Warner Bros. Television debuts with two episodes on Thursday, May 9, we’ve learned, followed by one new episode weekly through June 20 on Max.

Following the harrowing events of “Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin,” our Pretty Little Liars face a fate worse than death – summer school. However, Millwood High isn’t the only thing getting in the way of their fun summer jobs and new, dreamy love interests.

A new villain, who may or may not have a connection to A, has come to town and is going to put them all to the test.

Bailee Madison, Chandler Kinney, Zaria, Malia Pyles, and Maia Reficco return as the next generation of Pretty Little Liars.

The series also stars Mallory Bechtel, Sharon Leal, Alex Aiono, Jordan Gonzalez, and Elias Kacavas.

The series is created, written, and executive produced by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (“Riverdale,” “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”) and Lindsay Calhoon Bring (“Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”). Aguirre-Sacasa’s Muckle Man Productions and Alloy Entertainment produce, in association with Warner Bros. Television.

Alloy’s Leslie Morgenstein and Gina Girolamo are also executive producers, along with Marlene King (who developed the original “Pretty Little Liars” series), and Michael Grassi.
