Created by showrunner Haley Z. Boston (Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities), the chiller is, per its official logline, “an atmospheric horror series set at a wedding, following a bride and groom in the week leading up to their ill-fated nuptials. That’s not a spoiler — just read the title… ”

Ha — we like it already. “We were knocked flat when we first read Haley’s script,” Matt and Ross Duffer said in a statement. “She is a major new talent with a singular voice — her writing is twisted, terrifying, funny and just… very Haley.

“We feel so lucky to be producing her first show,” they added, “and we can’t wait to share her vision with the rest of the world.”

Peter Friedlander, Netflix’s veep of scripted series, seconded that emotion. “We’re thrilled to collaborate once again with dream partners Matt, Ross and Hilary to bring this unexpected and spine-tingling story to life through Haley’s uniquely riveting vision.”
