Pretty Little Liars Original Sin returns for Pretty Little Liars: Summer School, the second season of Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (Riverdale, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina) and Lindsay Calhoon Bring’s (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina) PLL reboot. Pretty Little Liars Original Sin was packed with horror Easter eggs and references for genre die-hards.
My personal favorite part about all of this? I can only imagine the influx of curious new horror fans that will find their way to the genre after watching these characters dissect and count down their favorite Friday the 13th entries and get deep in the weeds discussing their favorite horror movies. Is there a Letterboxd list dedicated to Pretty Little Liars horror references yet? Here’s the official synopsis for the new season:
Following the harrowing events of Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin, our Pretty Little Liars face a fate worse than death – summer school. However, Millwood High isn’t the only thing getting in the way of their fun summer jobs and new, dreamy love interests. A new villain, who may or may not have a connection to A, has come to town and is going to put them all to the test.
Bailee Madison, Chandler Kinney, Zaria, Malia Pyles, and Maia Reficco return as the next generation of Pretty Little Liars. The series also stars Mallory Bechtel, Sharon Leal, Alex Aiono, Jordan Gonzalez, and Elias Kacavas. We sat down with the Pretty Little Liars cast and creators to chat about performing summoning rituals in school bathrooms, Ouija boards, cults, and more! First up, check out our interview with Pretty Little Liars cast members Mallory Bechtel and Elias Kacavas.
