Mike Flanagan’s Resume
One aspect of The Midnight Club to hook horror fans is the name Mike Flanagan, who is on board as the adaptation’s creator.
Flanagan was responsible for bringing The Haunting of Hill House to Netflix, which stands as one of the most compelling and sophisticated horror series to date with a stellar cast.
Its success inspired Flanagan to make another series in the same spirit, titled The Haunting of Bly Manor, returning previous actors Victoria Pedretti, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Carla Gugino, and Kate Siegel.
Despite many fans wanting The Haunting series to continue, Flanagan also gave us Midnight Mass last year, which solidified the creator’s name as a staple in the horror genre.
Meet the Cast of The Midnight Club
Many actors from the series are relatively new to the profession, except for lead Iman Benson who has worked in Station 19 and Creepshow.
