Welcome to Retro Rewind, the original TGJ feature launched to celebrate TV and Film’s glorious past.
Today, we make our way to 1990, the year in which the hit series ‘Are You Afraid of the Dark?‘ made its way to the world.
Created by D.J. MacHale and Ned Kandel, the anthology series tells the tale of the Midnight Society, a group of teens who gather around campfire at midnight to share stories with one another.
The show’s first run started in 1990 and ended in 1996 and was revived in ’99 before its plug was pulled for good in June 11th 2000.
Fortunately, said run helped to turn many a 90s teen star into a household name, packing performances from Tia & Tamera Mowry (who star in the episode below),Ryan Gosling, Melissa Joan-Hart, Tatyana Ali and Neve Campbell.
Press play to reunite with the Nickelodeon series below…
