The six-part limited series will premiere on Friday, Feb. 12, at 8 p.m. (ET/PT) on Nickelodeon, with new episodes airing every Friday night.
“Are You Afraid of the Dark?: Curse of the Shadows” follows an all-new Midnight Society group of kids who learn of the terrifying curse cast over their small seaside town, and are haunted by a mysterious creature known as the Shadowman. In the recently released trailer, viewers are introduced to the new Midnight Society members and get a glimpse at the horrors that await them in the shadows.

MacHale and Ned Kandel, who are also executive producers on the project.
