Chilling Adventures of Sabrina follows Sabrina Spellman, a teenage girl living in the eerie town of Greendale. Born half-witch and half-mortal, on her sixteenth birthday she must decide between her mortal existence and her magical lineage. Sabrina welcomes her might, faces evil, and questions the laws of both worlds as dark powers grow.
Created for Netflix by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina draws on the Archie Comics series of the same name. It shares a continuity with Riverdale and presents a darker, more occult spin on the adored figure.
Originally set for The CW, the show transferred to Netflix in 2017 under a straight-to-series schedule. It debuted in October 2018 and spanned two seasons split into four halves, ending in December 2020. Despite the cancellation due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the show garnered attention. The series lives on through Riverdale crossovers and a comic continuation titled The Occult World of Sabrina.
At the heart of Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is Sabrina Spellman, played by Kiernan Shipka — a half-witch, half-mortal teen torn between her human life at Baxter High and her dark magical heritage.
Raised by her aunts after being orphaned, Sabrina defies the Church of Night's inflexible customs as she negotiates both personal and otherworldly challenges. Shipka also plays Sabrina Morningstar, her counterpart in another timeline.
Her aunts, Hilda (Lucy Davis), a kind, potion-brewing carer, and Zelda (Miranda Otto), a stern, tradition-bound witch, impact her home life. Along with Sabrina's attractive cousin under magical house imprisonment, Ambrose (Chance Perdomo) acts as her criminal accomplice in their household.
Among Sabrina's mortal group are her brave best friend Roz Walker (Jaz Sinclair), daughter of Greendale's minister, and Harvey Kinkle (Ross Lynch), her loving lover and descendant of witch hunters. Transgender adolescent Theo Putnam (Lachlan Watson) finishes off her devoted friend group.
Michelle Gomez plays both Mary Wardwell and Lilith/Madam Satan, a deceptive demon with her own evil plan. Sabrina runs afoul of Prudence Night (Tati Gabrielle), the ferocious head of the Weird Sisters, who subsequently becomes an ally in the Academy of the Unseen Arts. Nicholas Scratch (Gavin Leatherwood), a warlock with a mysterious past, becomes Sabrina’s romantic interest, while Father Blackwood (Richard Coyle) serves as a formidable antagonist.
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is available for online streaming on Netflix.
