Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (2018)
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is a 2018 mystery series created by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa. It stars Kiernan Shipka, Ross Lynch and Lucy Davis.
Greendale sits under a permanent autumn chill, and Sabrina Spellman lives split down the middle: half mortal, half witch, raised by her aunts Hilda and Zelda inside the Church of Night. Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa reworks the Archie comic into gothic horror, trading sitcom laughs for occult ritual, cannibal covens, and a talking cat named Salem. Kiernan Shipka plays Sabrina as a teenager caught between her mortal boyfriend and her family's dark faith. The mood is candlelit and witchy, borrowing from Rosemary's Baby and classic Satanic-panic cinema, with a feminist streak running through its coven politics.
