We finally have a release date for Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, the Netflix TV adaptation of the popular comic book series based in the Afterlife with Archie universe.  Netflix announced the date following their Television Critics Association morning press session last week.

Chilling Adventures of Sabrina stars Kiernan Shipka and is a dark coming of age origin story about Sabrina the Teenage Witch.  Tonally in the vein of Rosemary’s Baby and The Exorcist, this adaptation finds Sabrina wrestling to reconcile her dual nature — half-witch, half-mortal — while standing against the evil forces that threaten her, her family and the daylight world humans inhabit. Riverdale showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, who also serves as chief creative officer of Archie Comics, penned the script for the series.

The show is set to launch on October 26, 2018.
