Something wicked this way comes….but it’s not soon enough.

Not in our opinion, anyways.

Ever since it was announced a reboot of Sabrina the Teenage Witch is being conjured up, we’ve only been getting little tidbits as to what we can expect. 

Following the multiple casting announcements, title reveal of ‘The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina’ and just glimpses on set, the companion series to the CW’s Riverdale has launched its own Instagram account.

And, with it, they’ve shared a few teasers welcoming viewers into the coven.

Sabrina – played by Mad Men actress Kieran Shipka – introduces fans to her on-screen guardians, Hilda and Zelda, as well as some of the other Greendale residents.

The page also has the first look at Salem Saberhagen.

The remake is set to have a gritty, darker tone.

The Vampire Diaries‘ Jaz Sinclair is set to co-star as Sabrina’s best friend Rosalind, while the Disney Channel’s Ross Lynch will be taking on the role of Harvey Kinkle, the “prince charming of this dark fairytale”.

We’ve also gotten our first look at Sabrina’s wise-cracking cat, Salem and, of course, who will be playing Aunt Hilda.

But, as fans of the original series will know, you can’t have Aunt Hilda without Aunt Zelda – and Homeland’s Miranda Otto will be taking on the role.
