About Netflix's “The Midnight Club”
Benson is a scream queen. The Midnight Club is a break from her family sitcoms. It's a youthful, genre-jumping departure from creator Mike Flanagan's prior horror series.
“The terror is comparable, but I think viewers will find it extremely unique and different,” Benson says. “Eight terminally ill teens in the '90s enter imaginative universes”
Igby Rigney and Annarah Cymone from Midnight Mass are in Midnight Club. Eight cancer patients at Brightcliffe Hospice form a scary club to share ghost stories. The show is based on Christopher Pike's 1994 novel of the same name, as well as his previous writings.
The eight adolescents' horrific stories pale in comparison to the eerie mystery surrounding them as they learn Brightcliffe's mysteries. Benson says The Midnight Club contains “so many small Easter eggs” that hint at the series' major mystery. Benson advocates keeping your eyes alert and rewatching.
Benson doesn't want to leave this phantom world. Benson thinks The Midnight Club Season 2 may work, despite Flanagan's Haunting series being an anthology. She says, “I'd love to continue our stories organically and introduce new ones.” If she takes on a new Flanagan part, she hopes it'll be something gorier, “sort of like Samantha‘s in Midnight Mass,” she says. “I like her part.”
Benson is ready for Halloween after hunting ghosts and investigating cults. She shares her Halloween must-watch, costume preparations, and more.
