The original series was distributed worldwide by D. J. MacHale and Ned Kandel and was picked upwards by Nickelodeon in 1991 and produced by YTV.[3] MacHale, Kandel, and Nickelodeon teamed up with the Canadian company Cinar, and as a part of the deal the show was filmed in Richmond, British Columbia, and in the Greater Montreal area of Quebec. The product teams were respectively represented by the ACTRA and SCTVQ (Syndicat des techniciens du cinéma et de la vidéo du Québec) labour unions.[b] The serial premiered with the episode "The Tale of the Twisted Claw" as a airplane pilot on October 31, 1990, on the Canadian tv set network YTV.

The show was both a disquisitional and commercial success, garnering numerous awards every bit the series progressed.

The beginning revival serial, with new directors, writers, and a cast, was produced by Nickelodeon from 1999 to 2000 and also aired on the SNICK block. The sole fellow member from the original lineup to return for the first and second seasons of the revival was Tucker (Daniel DeSanto), although Gary (Ross Hull) returned for the concluding show, which notably bankrupt from the show's established format past blurring the line between story and "reality".[ citation needed ]

On Nov 13, 2017, it was appear that Paramount Players would make a live-action characteristic motion picture adaptation. Nevertheless, the moving picture was later removed from Paramount'due south schedule. On February 14, 2019, it was announced that the serial would exist revived again for a limited series,[v] which premiered on October xi, 2019.[6] On Feb 19, 2020, this revival was renewed for a second flavor, titled Are You Afraid of the Dark?: Curse of the Shadows, which premiered on February 12, 2021, featuring a unlike cast.[vii] [8] [9] In March 2022, the revival was renewed for a third season.

Background [edit]

Are You Agape of the Dark? was filmed in Montreal by CINAR and created by producer D. J. MacHale, an American television receiver producer.[x] The show is a co-production between Montreal-based CINAR Films and the U.S. Nickelodeon network.[10] Information technology had its American debut on Nickelodeon in the United States during Baronial, while Canada's Family Aqueduct had the series premiere in September 1992.[xi] By 1993, the series had moved from Family unit Channel to YTV.[10]

Both series of Are You Afraid of the Night? revolved around a group of teenagers who referred to themselves equally "The Midnight Guild". Every episode, at a hole-and-corner location in the woods at night, one member would tell a scary story to the group. The actual story, rather than the telling, was displayed to the idiot box viewer. The story was shown between the group's arrival at the site and their departure.

Each storyteller would begin their story by saying "Submitted for the approval of The Midnight Society, I call this story '(story name)'", at which bespeak they would toss a handful of "midnight dust" (actually Coffee-Mate[12]) from a leather pouch into a bivouac to enhance the flames and produce an eerie white fume.[13]

MacHale wrote the line "submitted for the approval of" as a nod to The Twilight Zone, in which creator Rod Serling would, after introducing the episode, say "submitted for your blessing." The storyteller would continue past announcing its title (The Tale of...).[14] The themes of the stories ordinarily revolve around a diversity of paranormal phenomena, such as demons, ghosts, magic, haunted houses, magical curses, aliens, witches, vampires, werewolves, and the similar coming into contact with average youths. Usually, the episodes were either filmed in the woods, in abandoned houses, or in public places like schools or libraries. Sources of these tales vary in dissimilar ways; many were adaptations of public domain fairy tales and short stories or urban legends. For instance, the episode "The Tale of the Twisted Claw" is an adaptation of W. W. Jacobs' short story, The Monkey's Paw.[15]

Sometimes, the stories were inspired by a certain event in the life of the storyteller. In the episode "The Tale of the Cerise Clown," for example, Tucker blackmailed his brother Gary with a poem he had establish, which Gary had written for Samantha. Gary then told a story in which a naughty younger brother was punished cruelly for his evil deeds. At the end of the episode, Tucker gave the poem dorsum to his brother. The majority of the horror stories on Are You Agape of the Dark? had happy endings (or at least endings in which their characters were in decent places), but some of them (albeit a very small number of them) had either bad endings or twist endings like "The Tale of the Alone Ghost," "The Tale of the Nighttime Music," "The Tale of the Chameleons," "The Tale of Vampire Boondocks," and "The Tale of the Pinball Wizard."

At the end of nigh episodes, one character (usually Gary in the first run and Tucker in the 2d run of the testify) would throw a red saucepan of water onto the burn, stating, "I declare this coming together of The Midnight Society closed", and the group would leave the army camp, thus ending the storytelling. Sometimes, the story would be related to an upshot (e.m. in "The Tale of Laughing in the Dark," Kristen, who was afraid of clowns, ran off when Eric put on a clown mask. So, anybody chased after her). This would cause either Gary or Tucker to hurriedly dump the water on the fire, and The Midnight Social club would run off to wherever they go subsequently meetings.

Episodes [edit]

Characters and cast [edit]

Each member of The Midnight Social club from 1991 to 1996 has a singled-out personality, and a notable trend in their storytelling. Though not all of their stories have like styles and plots, in many of the stories, each graphic symbol carries a unique attribute that reflects the nature of the storyteller, and what they find to be the well-nigh important to themselves.[16] In the second generation, the characters derive their stories more from events that happen during the days leading upwardly to the society meetings instead of from their personal interests and views. Many of the afterward episodes were simply given to a random social club member to tell.

Original [edit]

  • Gary: An unassuming, bookish-looking boy and the founder of this generation of The Midnight Lodge. Gary has a distinct fascination with magic, especially where the wizard Houdini is concerned. His stories tend to revolve around cursed or enchanted objects with supernatural properties, and how – in the wrong hands – they tin cause disaster, for both the holder and those effectually them. His stories have the recurring grapheme "Sardo" in them; most of his stories accept the master character buying an enchanted particular from Sardo'due south shop. In the 3-part episode, "The Tale of the Silvery Sight", Gary reveals that his grandfather was the founder of The Midnight Society and that information technology was his grandfather'due south stories that inspired him to recreate the grouping.
  • Betty Ann: A vibrant girl who has an open and eager passion for the baroque and twisted. Her stories often include themes where an alien or supernatural force is either trying to break into the earth of the characters, or else trying to elevate them into their own unnatural realms. Her stories tend to have twists reminiscent of Twilight Zone episodes, hinting that the protagonists of her stories have not yet escaped danger by the end.
  • Kiki: A spunky, tomboyish girl who often makes fun of others. Many of her stories involve plots where the danger of carelessness or deceitfulness, every bit well as the danger of the past, repeats itself. Also notable is that a big number of the characters in her stories are as well of African descent (likely due to Kiki herself being African-Canadian), though the trend dies off subsequently in the serial. Ane story she came upward with had to exist read by Gary due to her suffering from laryngitis at the time.
  • Frank: A punkish teenager with an in-your-face up mental attitude. Though his stories do not often take a running theme, they do oftentimes have the recurring grapheme Dr. Vink appear every bit the villain, or at least, the creator of the story's adversary. The first episode of the series has Frank attempting to impress the Midnight Society with a story to be allowed membership, which he does with "The Tale of the Phantom Cab". In season five, he and his family moved away, and he was replaced in the group past Stig.
  • Tucker: Gary's younger brother and the youngest member of The Midnight Club. Due to his age, he is oft portrayed as youthfully obnoxious. His stories tend to involve family relationships that are at first sour but grow in strength in the face of adversity, perhaps reflecting his relationship with his blood brother Gary. At that place is also a running theme of the characters accidentally unleashing evil upon their world. After Gary left, he took over his place as the president of The Midnight Order. Once Tucker is in charge, he is less of a deviling and more of a serious leader similar his older brother. He is the simply character to appear in both generations of The Midnight Society.
  • Sam: A shy girl with an obvious mutual crush on Gary, which becomes one of the highlighted arcs of both their developments in the series. Reflecting this amore for Gary, Sam's stories tend to have more of a strong theme of dear, and its endurance fifty-fifty beyond death.
  • Kristen: A girl who, though overnice about much else, has a fondness for ghost stories and fairy tales. She has a growing crush on David, and their affection for each other is a developing arc in the showtime few seasons. She loves to dress up for her stories or bring something for issue, sometimes to scare the others with and her stories nigh always deal with ghosts from the past who have unfinished business that they cannot complete without the aid of the living. In season 3, she left The Midnight Society due to her and her family moving, and she was replaced in the group by Sam.
  • David: A quiet boy with a mysterious expression. Reflecting his introverted nature and need to deal with his crush on Kristen, David'due south stories tend to be less virtually cancerous exterior forces, and more to do with the evil of past events left unresolved, or the darkness within normal people, and the consequences of not dealing with their actions. In season iii, he and his family moved away, and he was replaced in the group by Tucker.
  • Stig: His nickname may come from the term stigma, as he is marked an outsider for his notable lack of hygiene. Stig is the last fellow member to be initiated into this generation of The Midnight Society. As such, he has only 2 stories in the series before the bandage is changed: "The Tale of the Dead Human'due south Float" and "The Tale of Station 109.1." Due to the disfavor people seem to accept against him for his looks, both of his stories seem to circumduct around outsiders judged for their appearances and/or tastes.
  • Eric: Eric is portrayed as a atomic teenager with visible Irish ancestry that influences his offset story. As he has only had two stories in the kickoff season before his character was cut, there is no visible theme in his storytelling simply they seem to be well-nigh incredibly powerful evil forces (ones never proven innocent or misunderstood similar some others). In his brusque run on the show, Eric was shown to be rather snide and negative, spending about of the fourth dimension making sarcastic remarks and antagonizing the other members, specially Frank. He is the but grapheme to go out the evidence without any explanation for his departure.

First revival [edit]

Several years after the last meeting of The Midnight Society, Tucker returns to reinitialize the meetings, inviting his ain circle of friends to reform The Midnight Lodge.

  • Vange: Vange (short for "Evangeline") is the youngest of the New Midnight Society. She is a tomboy and does not have a trouble with speaking her mind. Teamed upward with Quinn she makes fun of Andy a lot. Vange'due south stories have niggling in common though virtually seem to exist about how wanting something too desperately tin can cause the main character to play into the villain's hands.
  • Andy: Andy is very sweet and kind. He is e'er being made fun of by Quinn and Vange for having more muscle than brains. He lives on a farm with his family. He often works there before and after schoolhouse. Andy is the closest to Megan. Andy's stories have fiddling in common but are oft about how characters' dark sides can unleash evil. Usually, the inspiration for his stories are based on his ain real-life personal experiences.
  • Megan: Megan is a rich child who is not very comfortable in the wood. She would rather concur the New Midnight Society Meetings in her own well-managed backyard. Tucker, not beingness the stickler his brother was, lets Megan refurnish the bivouac with some comfortable former couches. She seems to have a soft spot for Andy.

Recurring characters [edit]

I of the more than significant recurring characters was Sardo (Richard Dumont), owner of "Sardo'due south Magic Mansion" (a magic shop). He would oft attempt to sell a character a "prized" item, succeeding nigh every unmarried fourth dimension. He often had items in his shop that contained real backdrop of magic, notwithstanding did not know until information technology was revealed in the story. 1 of the near memorable recurring jokes in the series occurred when someone would accost him equally "Mr. Sardo." He would and then get irritated and exclaim: "That's SarDO (Sardôh)! No mister; emphasis on the doh!"

Some other recurring gag is Sardo attempting to sell a series of cheap novelty items before revealing the magical artifact, culminating with fake vomit, asking the protagonists, "Have y'all seen our vomit?" Additionally, when selling someone an item, he would often ask a rather high price. The principal grapheme would mention how much money they had, and Sardo would grab the money saying, "But I'm losing on the deal." Although he rarely got what he wanted, he would ofttimes stop up helping the characters, often unintentionally. He appeared in Gary'south stories, although in the later seasons, he appeared in two of Tucker's[21] [22] and ane of David's in the episode "The Tale of The Dark Dragon."[23]

Sardo's graphic symbol is revived in the second flavour of the second revival, "Curse of the Shadows." Sardo's son (Ryan Beil) is the possessor of "Sardo'southward Magic Store". Richard Dumont appears in the finale as Sardo.

Another recurring graphic symbol was Dr. Vink (Aron Tager). He was a physically imposing man who would often appear as a mad scientist, sorcerer, and the like. When he enters, he introduces himself past maxim, "Vink'due south the name. Dr. Vink." He would also get his name mispronounced, usually something similar "Dr. Fink?" When this happened, he would respond "Vink. With a va-va-va!" Often, the protagonist would call him a "nutbag" behind his back, assuming he could not hear him, simply to take him reply subsequently, "...and I am not a nutbag".

Unlike Sardo, whose character was set in a magic shop, Dr. Vink had many 'unique endeavors' as he called them, for his stories. These ranged from living deep in the woods conducting foreign nature experiments, beingness a retired filmmaker, owning his own eating place as head chef and lastly a barbershop. His activities were normally villainous, designed to put the characters in peril and let him the terminal express joy. Yet, in his last advent, "The Tale of Cutter's Treasure" (which was told by both Frank and Gary), he allied himself with Sardo and the main characters without his usual maliciousness. He appeared in Frank's stories. Aron Tager also played the carnival worker who stands in front end of the Funhouse and invites people to become inside in the episode "The Tale of the Laughing in the Dark".[24]

The character of Zeebo the Clown, also played by Tager, who appeared in "The Tale of the Laughing in the Nighttime" is referenced in several other stories, for example, in the episode "The Tale of the Whispering Walls", two children mention seeing him at a fun park, in the episode "The Tale of the Mystical Mirror", a girl says she volition look similar Zeebo if she wears besides much lipstick, and in the episode "The Tale of the Crimson Clown" in the boys' room a video game called Zeebo's Big Business firm can be seen on the desk with a picture show of Zeebo on information technology every bit the title graphic symbol. The video game was as well mentioned in the episode "The Tale of Train Magic." Finally, in the episode "The Tale of the Night Shift," the teenage janitor is called Zeebo by his supervisor a few times at the get-go of the episode.[25]

The villain, the "Ghastly Grinner" (star of "The Tale of the Ghastly Grinner"), like Zeebo the Clown, appears in a comic book that "Night" characters read. In "Tale of the Ghastly Grinner", The Grinner is shown as being the star of a comic book.

Legacy [edit]

The show became a weekly staple for children and tweens in the 1990s. Kids "were one-time plenty to stay up simply not old plenty to stay out, so [they] spent almost every Saturday night huddled around television sets with friends or siblings, pretending not to be terrified by that week's tale."[15] Equally written by Matt Melis,

"Just there'due south likewise a lot to admire in the care that went into trying to frighten us. We saw the protagonists encountering the creepy and supernatural in the same suburban settings nosotros hailed from. They were remarkably vulnerable and insecure kids, too, ones with problems we could relate to; they were new kids, outcasts, rival siblings, and children experiencing crude patches like deaths in the family or parents filing for divorce."[15]

Said series co-creator D.J. MacHale, "I wanted stories nearly real kids who were facing challenges that had nothing to do with the supernatural state of affairs they ended up in."[26] He added, "But I'd similar to believe that by depicting kids taking charge of hard situations, it opened upward kid-viewers to the idea that they aren't powerless in their own lives."[26] The show has also been hailed for its diversity in characters and stories. "I write about kids who observe themselves in challenging situations, and ultimately solve the issues themselves ... no matter their sex, race, or age. Nosotros wanted to describe a broad multifariousness of stories, characters, and situations. It was all about diversity," says MacHale.[26] "We didn't play to stereotypes."[26] The series was nominated for an NAACP Image Honour in 1996.[26] The show has also been seen as helping to create a generation of feminist horror fans, as it showed kids a world "where girls got to be the imperfect heroes equally oftentimes as the boys did."[26] According to MacHale, "in the starting time season lonely, half of the scripts focused on female characters and were written by female writers."[26]
