The upcoming Netflix series is a darker retelling of the story of Archie Comics' resident teenage witch

MANILA, Philippines – Netflix has released the first images from its upcoming series Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, with Kiernan Shipka playing the titular teenage witch.

One image shows Sabrina in the woods, holding what looks like a broom. The other image is ultimately more creepy as it shows a scene from what Netflix says is “the dark baptism of Sabrina.”

It shows Sabrina kneeling and surrounded by several other witches including her aunts Hilda (Lucy Davis) and Zelda (Miranda Otto), and Father Blackwood (Richard Coyle), the High Priest of the Church of Night.

Chilling Adventures of Sabrina follows Sabrina Spellman, half-witch, half-mortal teenager who tries to live a normal life even as she protects her family and friends from evil forces. The series was created by Riverdale showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, who was said to be influenced tonally by films like Rosemary’s Baby and The Exorcist.

The series is set to launch on Netflix just before Halloween, on October 26. – Rappler.com
