Stephen King Loves This Haunting Netflix Series
We love it when Stephen King likes a series so much he makes it Twitter official. This was the case for a Netflix show created by Mike Flanagan, a professional fan of King, and filmmaker. The horror author hit the Twitter streets before its premiere to let people know this wildly popular title was coming to the masses.
Stephen King described it as “a dense, beautifully photographed terror tale that climbs to a high pitch of horror by the 7th and last episode.” Because fans are still talking about Midnight Mass two years later (and with a new Flanagan Netflix series on the horizon), the scribe is not alone in his love for the limited series.

Flanagan is mostly known for his Stephen King adaptations, so this tweet gives many horror nerds a reason to geek out. Midnight Mass is one of the many popular projects he helmed on Netflix.

Read the full synopsis below:
From The Haunting of Hill House creator Mike Flanagan, Midnight Mass tells the tale of a small, isolated island community whose existing divisions are amplified by the return of a disgraced young man (Zach Gilford) and the arrival of a charismatic priest (Hamish Linklater). When Father Paul’s appearance on Crockett Island coincides with unexplained and seemingly miraculous events, a renewed religious fervor takes hold of the community – but do these miracles come at a price?
The series has a stacked cast, featuring Kate Siegel, Rahul Abburi, Crystal Balint, Matt Biedel, Alex Essoe, Annarah Cymone, Annabeth Gish, Rahul Kohli, Kristin Lehman, Robert Longstreet, Igby Rigney, Samantha Sloyan, Henry Thomas, and Michael Trucco.
