Netflix's 'The Midnight Club' Teaser: Who is Part of the Cast?

Netflix released Mike Flanagan's new show for "The Midnight Club."

As part of the second annual Netflix's Geeked Week, a new horror show will be released for avid horror fans out there.

'The Midnight Club'

"The Midnight Club," the latest horror TV series directed by the most well-known horror specialist on Netflix, has now released its trailer.

Netflix has presented us with the very first look at the upcoming series "Geeked Week," in which we are introduced to the members of the TV series.

According to Polygon, the horror series, which consists of ten episodes and is based on the novel of the same name by Christopher Pike, follows a group of seven young adults who are patients at a hospice for young adults with terminal illnesses known as the Rotterdam Home.

The group of younglings, who call themselves the Midnight Club because their favorite activity is telling scary stories at midnight, make a pact that the first one to die will be in charge of communicating with the rest of the group from beyond the grave. This is due to the fact that sharing scary stories at midnight is their favorite activity.

The events that take place after this one are not hard to anticipate in any way. Strange incidents start taking place in the Rotterdam Home after one of the members of the group actually passes away.

The members of the club, played by Adia, Igby Rigney, Ruth Codd, Aya Furukawa, Annarah Shephard, William Chris Sumpter, and Sauriyan Sapkota, are shown in the teaser that demonstrates the ominous and creepy tone of the series. Other cast members include Ruth Codd.

In addition to Heather Langenkamp, Zach Gilford, Matt Biedel, and Samantha Sloyan, have been cast in supporting roles. Heather Langenkamp will play the part of the mysterious doctor who is in charge of Rotterdam Home.

As mentioned in Bloody Disgusting, the adaptation of Pike's stories is being done by Flanagan in collaboration with Leah Fong, who is the director of Once Upon a Time. Flanagan also helmed several episodes of the show. However, he won't be the only one directing episodes of the new series.

Directors for the horror show will also include:

  • Michael Fimognari

  • Viet Nguyen

  • Morgan Beggs

  • Emmanuel Osei-Kuffour

  • Axelle Carolyn

Together with Flanagan, Leah Fong and Julia Bicknell will serve as executive producers on the project. In addition, the show will have Elan Gale, James Flanagan, and Chinaka Hodge attached as writers to the project.

Netflix has announced that the first episode of "The Midnight Club" will be available exclusively on Netflix on October 7-just in time for Halloween.

Mike Flanagan's Horror Films on Netflix

According to Variety, prior to working on this project, Flanagan had a great deal of success producing horror content for Netflix. Some examples of his work include the film Midnight Mass, which starred Hamish Linklater, and his well-received adaptation of Stephen King's Gerald's Game.

In a similar vein, the director has been lauded for his efforts in translating another one of King's works, namely Doctor Sleep, the legendary horror film that came after "The Shining."

Furthermore, "The Haunting of Hill House" and "The Haunting of Bly Manor" are two of Flanagan's most popular horror series with fans.

His two "Haunting" series were both adapted from well-known novels written by Shirley Jackson and Henry James. Now, with this adaptation of Christopher Pike's 1994 young adult novel "The Midnight Club," he is returning to the world of horror series that are based on novels.
