Christopher Pike‘s 1994 novel The Midnight Club is becoming a Netflix series, with Mike Flanagan (“Haunting of Hill House,” Doctor Sleep) as co-creator. Flanagan is adapting the book (and other Pike stories) alongside Leah Fong (“Once Upon a Time”), and Flanagan will be finding himself in the director’s chair. But he’s not the only director for the new series.
Taking to Twitter over the weekend, Flanagan announced the other directors involved in “The Midnight Club,” including “The Haunting of Bly Manor” director Axelle Carolyn.
The full lineup includes…
- Emmanuel Osei-Kuffour
- Axelle Carolyn
- Viet Nguyen
- Morgan Beggs
- Michael Fimognari
The book “takes place at Rotterdam Home, a hospice for terminally ill teenagers. A group of patients begin to gather together at midnight to share scary stories. They eventually make a pact that whichever of them dies first will contact the others from beyond the grave.”
Leah Fong will executive produce with Flanagan, along with Julia Bicknell. Attached writers at this time include Elan Gale, James Flanagan, and Chinaka Hodge.
Honored to announce the other filmmakers helming eps of THE MIDNIGHT CLUB. Emmanuel Osei-Kuffour, Axelle Carolyn, Viet Nguyen, Morgan Beggs, and my dear friend Michael Fimognari will all direct episodes. I’m grateful and lucky to collaborate with such terrific artists.
