Mike Flanagan has built an impressive recent resume with his horror miniseries on Netflix. It all started with 2018’s “The Haunting Of Hill House,” with its follow-up, “The Haunting Of Bly Manor” coming two years later. Then last year, “Midnight Mass” dropped to much critical fanfare. But while fans wait for “The Fall Of The House Of Usher” to premiere next year, Flanagan has another miniseries on the way first: “The Midnight Club.”
Based on Christopher Pike‘s 1994 novel of the same name, the series follows eight young hospice patients who make a chilling pact with one another.
Here’s the show’s official synopsis, courtesy of Netflix:
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.
The main cast of “The Midnight Club” are Iman Benson, Adia, Igby Rigney, Ruth Codd, Aya Furukawa, Annarah Cymone, Williams Chris Sumpter, Sauriyan Sapkota, and Heather Langenkamp. The recurring cast includes Zach Gilford, Matt Biedel, Samantha Sloyan, and Larsen Thompson.
Flanagan co-creates the series with Leah Fong. Both also serve as executive producers on the show, with Trevor Macy, Julia Bicknell, and Pike.
