Crockett Island is a tiny, isolated community where residents cling to their faith in God, their reliance on the commercial fishing industry or a combination of the two. This sleepy enclave is where Midnight Mass, Mike Flanagan’s latest Netflix series, takes place — and even before the horror shenanigans get started, there’s a lot that’s scary about the place.
But I’m getting ahead of myself. In Episode 1, we’re introduced to Crockett Island via the return of Riley Flynn (played by Friday Night Lights‘ Zach Gilford). Riley grew up there but fled as soon as possible, eventually...

This “Midnight Mass” preview was first published on Sept. 20.
Netflix’s new thriller limited series “Midnight Mass” comes from the mastermind who gave you “The Haunting of Hill House” and “The Haunting of Bly Manor.” But just because he dreamed up “The Haunting” franchise doesn’t mean Mike Flanagan’s new show, which launches Friday, is anything like his anthology. In fact, he’s spent a few weeks making sure to correct people on social media who assume “Midnight Mass” is Season 3 of “The Haunting.”
“One of the reasons why we’re very careful to calibrate the expectations properly is that I do feel like people who mistakenly approach this material the same way they would approach ‘Hill House’ or ‘Bly’ are going to be surprised to find it’s so different,” Flanagan told TheWrap in a joint interview with his producing partner Trevor Macy.

Mike Flanagan has established himself as one of the leading names in horror, while helping Netflix become one the streaming industry’s leaders in the genre thanks to hits such as “The Haunting of Hill House” and “The Haunting of Bly Manor.” The director is hoping to strike gold for the popular streaming service once again with the long-awaited “Midnight Mass.” Netflix unveiled the latest trailer for the upcoming supernatural series on Wednesday.
Per Netflix, “Midnight Mass,” which is created and directed by Flanagan, tells the tale of a small, isolated island community whose existing divisions are amplified by the return of a disgraced young man (Zach Gilford) and the arrival of a charismatic priest (Hamish Linklater). When Father Paul’s appearance on Crockett Island coincides with unexplained and seemingly miraculous events, a renewed religious fervor takes hold of the community — but do these miracles come at a price?

Here is a wrap-up of all the news you need to know from Wednesday, September 8.
Charmed Season 4 may not be arriving until 2022, but the series has announced its new witch.
According to TV Line, Lucy Barrett will join the show,, but the creatives are keeping many details under wraps until transmission.
“Her name, backstory, powers, and connection to Mel and Maggie are being kept under wraps, because… well… it’s just more fun that way," said co-showrunners Jeffrey Lieber, Joey Falco, and Nicki Renna.
"What we will say is she’s an artist with a wild, unpredictable love for life and a one-of-a-kind view of the world that serves her well in her art, which is her life’s passion."
"She’s fun, irreverent, impulsive, strong-willed and will bring a brand-new energy to the Power of Three.”
It's nice to know there's an element of mystery surrounding this new character.

After The Haunting of Hill House and Doctor Sleep (and pretty much everything else he's directed), I am so excited for Midnight Mass, the latest project from Mike Flanigan, and we now have the first teaser trailer and a premiere date!
"From The Haunting of Hill House creator Mike Flanagan, Midnight Mass tells the tale of a small, isolated island community whose existing divisions are amplified by the return of a disgraced young man (Zach Gilford) and the arrival of a charismatic priest (Hamish Linklater). When Father Paul’s appearance on Crockett Island coincides with unexplained and seemingly miraculous events, a renewed religious fervor takes hold of the community - but do these miracles come at a price?

After chilling us to our cores with The Haunting of Hill House and shattering our hearts with the The Haunting of Bly Manor finale, Netflix has returned with another horror mystery series that's set out to do both. Directed and executive produced by Hill House creator Mike Flanagan, Midnight Mass explores the supernatural happenings of Crockett Island and its residents who may be more of a danger to each other than the ghosts lurking in the shadows. As a storm brews and dark forces convene on the island, no one is safe. Here's what we know about the seven-episode limited series so far.

“The Haunting of Hill House” and “Haunting of Bly Manor” creator Mike Flanagan returns to Netflix this fall with another spooky new series, “Midnight Mass.” The seven-episode limited series features Flanagan cast members new and old, and the writer-director is shaking things up by subbing out a big haunted house and setting his new show on a shadowy island where things definitely aren’t right. Check out the first teaser trailer below.
Here’s the official synopsis from Netflix: “From ‘The Haunting of Hill House’ creator Mike Flanagan, ‘Midnight Mass’ tells the tale of a small, isolated island community whose existing divisions are amplified by the return of a disgraced young man (Zach Gilford) and the arrival of a charismatic priest (Hamish Linklater).

Netflix released the official teaser for “Midnight Mass,” the upcoming supernatural horror series from Mike Flanagan.
Starring Zach Gilford, Kate Siegel and Hamish Linklater, the seven-episode series follows an isolated island community that experiences miraculous events and frightening omens after the arrival of a mysterious priest. The show entered production last August and wrapped up in December.
Flanagan — who also created, directed and wrote “The Haunting of Hill House” and “The Haunting of Bly Manor” — is known for crafting harrowing stories without relying on horror tropes.
In a letter released with the teaser, Flanagan wrote: “I’m just going to admit it… ‘Midnight Mass’ is my favorite project so far. As a former altar boy, about to celebrate 3 years of sobriety, it’s not had to see what makes this so personal. The ideas at the root of this show scare me to my core.”
