New Netflix horror series from the creator of The Haunting of Hill House looks very creepy

Thankfully, it arrives just in time for Halloween.

With Halloween only mere weeks away, it's that time of the year where avid movie and TV show watchers are starting to consider what spooky offerings to watch to help get in the seasonal mood. Perhaps with that in mind, Netflix is releasing its new seven-part horror series Midnight Mass later this month, which comes from writer-director Mike Flanagan, who created the streamer's other hit chillers The Haunting of Hill House and The Haunting of Bly Manor. The plot synopsis for his new show reads: "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, Friday Night Lights) and the arrival of a charismatic priest (Hamish Linklater, Legion). "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?" Based on the very creepy imagery and sinister tone of the trailer, our guess is yes. The show also stars Annabeth Gish, Henry Thomas, Kate Siegel, Robert Longstreet and Samantha Sloyan, who all appeared in The Haunting of Hill House, as well as Alex Essoe and Rahul Kohli from The Haunting of Bly Manor. For horror fiends, Midnight Mass will arrive on the streaming service on 24 September. Check out the new trailer for the show below. Clip via Netflix
