The Midnight Club
The Midnight Club was another project from Horror director/writer Mike Flanagan.
For this series, Flanagan ventured into YA territory, with an incredible ensemble of up-and-coming young actors.
The Campaign
This series was based off of Christopher Pike’s Young Adult novels, primarily “The Midnight Club”… A Book about a group of teenagers that are all dying from various terminal diseases, who meet at midnight to tell ghost stories.
Pretty light stuff.
We constructed a campaign that treated the issues the kids were dealing with thoughtfulness and respect, while still showcasing some of the campiness and horror elements.
Bonus fun fact: We used the song, “Possum Kingdom” by The Toadies in our trailer. The song was recently also used for Marvel’s “Thunderbolts*” Trailer. But personally I think our use of the song was better.
