‘Are You Afraid Of The Dark?’ Reboot Trailer Invites You To The Carnival Of Doom
Are You Afraid of the Dark?, the classic Nickelodeon TV series in which Canadian kids sat around a campfire and told spooky stories, is getting a new lease on life. The show has been rebooted into a new limited series that pits a new group of youths against things that go bump in the night. The original ambitious plan was to have the limited series lead directly into a feature film, but the fate of the movie is now in limbo. For now, we can get our thrills and chills from the reboot arriving this October. Watch theAre You Afraid of the Darkreboot trailer below.
Are You Afraid of the Dark Reboot Trailer
When I was a wee lad,Are You Afraid of the Dark?was a big deal. I was (and still am) obsessed with all-things-spooky, which made the show – an anthology horror series aimed at younger audiences – a must-watch. This was the set-up: the Midnight Society, a group ofreallynerdy kids, would gather in the woods to tell each other scary stories. Those stories would then unfold before our eyes. Some were genuinely creepy, some were silly, but all were pretty damn entertaining.
Now,Are You Afraid of the Dark?lives again with a new limited series debuting this October. In this three-episode series, a new Midnight Society finds that the scary stories they tell are coming to life. This is pretty much the same plot as theGoosebumpsmovie, but I’ll admit there’s a legitimately creepy vibe on display in this trailer, and I’m sure younger audiences with a penchant for horror are going to love it.
The series starsSam Ashe Arnold,Miya Cech,Tamara Smart,Jeremy Taylor,Lyliana Wray, andRafael Casalas a character named Mr. Tophat. At one time, there was a big plan to have this miniseries lead into anAre You Afraid of the Dark?movie, which would hit theaters this October. But that’s no longer the case, as “behind-the-scene changes” have stalled the project out. The status of the movie is now up in the air.
