The Midnight Club Final Teaser Welcomes Us to Brightcliffe Hospice

In one week, Mike Flanagan & Trevor Macy (Netflix’s “Haunting” franchise) and Leah Fong‘s (Once Upon a Time) series take on Christopher Pike‘s 1994 novel The Midnight Club (and other Pike stories) will be holding its first Netflix meeting. Set at a hospice for terminally ill young adults, eight patients gather together every night at midnight to tell each other stories as they make a pact that the next of them to die will send them a sign from the beyond. And while our previous looks at the series have done an excellent job of giving viewers a sense of what they can expect, the final teaser that was released today offers a look at Brightcliffe Hospice that definitely dials up the creepy factor.

Now here’s the final teaser for Netflix’s The Midnight Club, followed by a look back at some previously-released previews:

In the following featurette, Flanagan, Macy, director Axelle Carolyn, and others discuss the importance of Pike’s works, achieving the right look & feel for the series, and more:

With the 10-episode series set to hit Netflix on October 7th, here’s a look back at the official trailer for The Midnight Club:

“One of the big things we assumed was that the younger viewers could handle scares,” Flanagan explained during an interview with Empire, addressing how he’s adjusting his approach to a project expected to skew younger when it comes to viewers. And to that end, viewers also shouldn’t expect any long, intricate & intense monologues anytime soon. “I wouldn’t subject a viewer of ‘The Midnight Club’ to an eight-minute monologue,” he added. But that doesn’t mean viewers should be expecting a “kinder & gentler” Flanagan, who wanted to make sure that the series kept with Pike’s dark and sometimes brutally real literary world. “He [Pike] wrote some pretty advanced stuff for his younger readers, and it was not at all uncommon for his teenage characters to die, pretty shockingly,” Flanagan explained. “His books were full of things I found really exciting and thrilling and dark. So I became a bit of an addict.”
