The 90s kid in me is so excited!
From 1990 to 2000 Are You Afraid of the Dark entertained and frightened a whole generation of kids with its spooky tales.
Still, to this day, I can remember episodes like The Tale of the Lonely Ghost and The Tale of the Prom Queen, which were not only scary but also had touching storylines and were almost like mini-movies.
For over ten years now Are You Afraid of the Dark has been gone from our screens but just as the newest generation thought they were safe it’s back and even spookier than ever!
The Midnight Society is back together and has a whole new bunch of campfire stories up their sleeves.
From the sneak peek clip that’s been released it seems that episode formula may have changed (or at least for one episode) as the story told by the fire comes to life. The characters can be seen battling against their worst fears in a bid to escape the nightmare that they have found themselves unwillingly in.
Horror TV for kids was huge in the 90s with shows like Are You Afraid of the Dark and Goosebumps, and I think it’s about time it made its big comeback.
Get you remote and blanket for hiding behind at the ready as Are You Afraid of the Dark returns just in time for Halloween on October 11 to Nickelodeon.
