As the winter solstice approaches, Sabrina orchestrates an emotional séance with serious consequences, and Susie's merry plans turn menacing.
The world has always had a fascination with the peculiar, and Netflix’s *Wednesday* brings to life one of literature's most iconic characters—the enigmatic Wednesday Addams. Created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, this supernatural mystery comedy series delves deep into the darkly humorous realm we’ve come to adore from *The Addams Family*. With Jenna Ortega stepping into the titular role, viewers are treated to a fresh take on a beloved character who balances wit with just enough macabre flair.
Set against the backdrop of Nevermore Academy—a boarding school for "monstrous outcasts"—the series introduces us to a unique blend of drama, fantasy, and mystery. Wednesday finds herself facing expulsion after executing a cleverly wicked prank involving piranhas—a fitting introduction to her character's delightfully sinister nature. As she settles into her new life at Nevermore, not only does she uncover her psychic abilities but also becomes embroiled in unraveling a local murder mystery. This intriguing plotline is sure to keep viewers hooked as they follow along with Wednesday’s adventures.
In addition to Ortega’s standout performance, which has garnered significant acclaim—including Golden Globe nominations—*Wednesday* features an impressive ensemble cast. The chemistry between characters such as Enid Sinclair (Emma Myers), a colorful werewolf roommate, and Tyler Galpin (Hunter Doohan), who harbors romantic feelings for Wednesday, adds depth to the narrative. Each episode reveals more about their relationships while maintaining suspense through various plot twists tied directly to Nevermore Academy's secrets.
