Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is an American supernatural television series based on the comic book series of the same name. Just like its namesake, the series is a darker retelling of the long-running Archie Comics title Sabrina the Teenage Witch. It is the second live-action series based on Sabrina, following the 1990s sitcom. In this adaptation, Sabrina Spellman must reconcile her dual nature as a half-witch, half-mortal while fighting the evil forces that threaten her, her family, and the daylight world humans inhabit.The series was created by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa originally as a companion series for Riverdale, but it was later acquired by Netflix and developed for them by Warner Bros. Television and Berlanti Productions, with the first two seasons being shot back to back. Following a successful launch, two more seasons were ordered.The series stars Kiernan Shipka (Mad Men) in the title role, with Lucy Davis and Miranda Otto as Sabrina’s aunts, Hilda and Zelda Spellman, respectively. Other roles include Michelle Gomez as Mary Wardwell / Madam Satan, Ross Lynch as Harvey Kinkle, and Chance Perdomo as Ambrose Spellman.Part 1 of the first season was released on October 26, 2018. A Christmas special was released on December 14 and placed as part 1, episode 11. Part 2, the back half of the first season, was released on April 5, 2019.The first half of the second season, listed as the series’s 3rd part, was released on January 24, 2020. The second half, listed as the series's 4th part, was released on December 31, 2020 and served as the series' final season. Aguirre-Sacasa has stated he intends to bring the series back in some form after Netflix's exclusivity window on the title expires, while a comic book continuation titled The Occult World of Sabrina was announced in July 2021. In October 2021, it was revealed that Shipka would be appearing in the sixth season of Riverdale as Sabrina in a crossover episode, which has been said to connect with the aforementioned comic series. | |

Sealed Inside a Person-Shaped Can: According to Madam Satan and Nick, the human body is the strongest and most sacred binding in nature, the first and mightiest prison for a supernatural entity, designed by the False God himself. During the climax of the season 1 the Dark Lord is trapped inside Nick's body, which is then put into a supernatural sleep to keep Lucifer from trying to escape. After removing Lucifer from Nick, Satan is put inside Father Blackwood. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: The series is considerably darker and more adult-oriented than the original comics, and a whole magnitude darker than the previous live-action adaptation. In fact, this series takes elements that were either played for comedy or only implied in the sitcom and either expands on them or plays them for drama instead. The Witches Council being unfairly biased towards mortals and having really silly rules - now they're a corrupt church with some really gross and archaic traditions. Harvey's father was implied to be strict or hard on him. In this series he's a straight up abuser. The rivalry between the aunts? Zelda now frequently kills Hilda and buries her in the garden. Sabrina not thinking things through before she casts spells? Disastrous consequences when trying to resurrect Tommy. Sabrina having to keep up The Masquerade from her friends was occasionally played for drama in the sitcom. Here it's a huge part of her character conflict. The school principal being indifferent to the students' plight? Now he's a misogynistic jerk who does nothing about some of the worse bullying at the school. Sabrina being tormented by an Alpha Bitch and her Girl Posse? These characters now have magic powers of their own, and do their best to bully Sabrina into hanging herself. | |

Virgin Sacrifice: Madam Satan shapeshifts into a young girl and brings one of the jocks to the hanging tree. When he denies being a virgin, she mocks him and claims that a virgin just happens to work best for her plans before she proceeds to slice his neck and sacrifice him. Also becomes a plot point in Part 3, when the pagans need a virgin sacrifice to summon the Green Man and ultimately choose Harvey. | |

Religion of Evil | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_187bddc1 | comment |
Religion of Evil: Deconstructed with the Satanic witches. Despite Father Blackwood's protestations to the contrary, the Satanism the witches practice is very much this, as the entity they worship is objectively evil, their rituals involve cannibalism, and they look forward to the apocalypse. However, most of the rank-and-file witches (and even some of the high-ranking witches) are not willingly evil, and there is plenty of propaganda aimed at concealing Satan's true malevolent nature. Which is why the Church of Night goes into a crisis and eventually abandons Satan worship after Part 2. | |

The Witch Hunter | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_1a54a61b | comment |
The Witch Hunter: There are people in this setting who specialize in hunting down and killing witches. Harvey's family, centuries ago when they were still called the Von Kunkles, where a whole clan of these who single-handedly drove all the witches from the hills around Greendale and took over their tunnels as mines. | |

Sins of Our Fathers | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_1adcd502 | comment |
Sins of Our Fathers: Upon discovering that the Kinkles are descended from the Von Kunkles, Agatha and Dorcas decide to punish them for all the witches the Von Kunkles killed back in the 1690s. It’s made all the worse because of their disregard for collateral damage and by the fact that Grandpa Kinkle's story showed the family doesn't even remember that the people they drove out of the hills and the mines were witches. Then again, witches have much longer lifespans than humans; to them, it's probably more like running into the descendants of someone who committed atrocities against your family within living memory. And the fact that the Kinkles are hunting familiars who appear in death as terrifying many-legged goblin-deer... tends to imply that Grandpa Kinkle might know significantly more about the family history than he wants his naive sixteen-year-old grandson to mention in a school assignment. | |

Not as You Know Them: Compared to the original Archie comics, Hilda and Zelda have completely swapped roles. In the comics, Hilda was the tall, red-headed, more traditional wicked witch type who wanted Sabrina to follow suit, and Zelda was the short, rounder-figured witch who had a much sweeter temperament. | |

Physical Hell | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_1bdf0319 | comment |
Physical Hell: The mines near Greendale seem to literally reach down to Hell, which suggests that it's somewhere beneath the Earth. They're likely the source of the town's many problems, having been dug originally by the Greendale coven after they came across the ocean to the New World, near the spot where Lucifer fell to Earth after being cast out of Heaven. | |

Deal with the Devil | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_1fc8335e | comment |
Deal with the Devil: On their 16th birthday, most witches and warlocks sign the Book of the Beast, gaining more power and immortality, in exchange for promising Satan their soul and obedience. Sabrina refuses on her birthday, but later goes through with it to save Greendale. In "The Trial of Sabrina Spellman", Sabrina's lawyer, the mortal Daniel Webster, made a deal to become the greatest lawyer ever, only to find himself constantly getting off the worst murderers, rapists and the like off scot-free. In the same episode, Sabrina makes a deal to allow her to live her normal life so long as she attends weekly Black Mass and part-time classes at the Academy of Unseen Arts. | |

I'm a Humanitarian: Zelda laments that a boy's parents asked for an open casket, as they haven't had "long pig" for quite some time. Witches also hold the Feast of Feasts celebration to commemorate a young witch named Freya, who sacrificed herself to feed her coven in the cold winter. The Queen of Feasts is eventually sacrificed and devoured by the coven. Raw. They consider it a great honor. | |

Harvey is an inversion; while he comes from a line of witch hunters, he's a sensitive soul who can't bring himself to shoot a deer and is in general a disappointment to both his father and grandfather. | |

The New '10s | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_26a9afaa | comment |
Notably the only character shown to use a modern cellphone are Harvey Kinkle and Rosalind Walker which grounds the show in The New '10s, but everyone else still uses a landline. Specifically the Spellmans still use a wall phone, and both Hilda and Zelda are shown running to answer it instead of using a cordless phone from the 90s. This, however, could just be a quirk of the Spellman sisters, being long-lived witches, taking their time to modernize. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: On Harvey's wall, there is a front cover of an Archie's Mad House comic. Sabrina first appeared in issue 22 of this title. Riverdale being mentioned is either this or the first hints of a Shared Universe. Hilda's full name 'Hildegarde Antoinette Spellman' comes from the sitcom. Sabrina messing with necromancy brings to mind Afterlife with Archie, and just like in that story it has catastrophic consequences. During the Animated Credits Opening, there are cartoon versions of all the characters as they appear in the series, but near the end (appropriately enough, when the credits read "based upon the comic book by Archie Comics"), you will see an image of the original Sabrina from the comics, who is lying on the floor and propping herself up. This is actually from Sabrina's very first appearance ever, on the pages of Archie's Mad House #22. The image of the original Sabrina is followed by the cover of the second issue of the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina comic book series. A rejected suitor of Sabrina's sneeringly calling Harvey "Farm Boy" is a reference to the sitcom. The opening of "The Epiphany" shows Sabrina twirling in front of a mirror to change her outfit, homaging the original opening credits of the sitcom. The Mandrake Sabrina ask Hilda for her favorite breakfast pancakes, likely a reference to the 90 sitcom where once Sabrina started eating pancakes she couldn't stop. Sabrina offered the Throne of Hell, is a nod to the manga themed comics and Sabrina: Secrets of a Teenage Witch where she's offered the throne of the magical world. Here however she actually takes it, albeit for more noble reasons. The fourth season's plot of having two Sabrinas harkens back to the sitcom's sideplot of Sabrina (and every Spellman) having an evil twin. | |

Literary Allusion Title: "The Mephisto Waltz," the episode in which Lucifer arrives in human form on Earth, reveals to Sabrina that he's her father, and attempts to get her to join him and help rule Hell, borrows its title from a 1971 horror film in which a father and daughter make a deal with the devil and become Satanists in order to be able to pursue an incestuous relationship. | |

Older Than They Look: Potentially any of the witches, as they start aging much more slowly after their Dark Baptism. Ambrose for instance, looks to be in his early 20s but has been under house arrest at the mortuary for 75 years. | |

Stable Time Loop | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_37690091 | comment |
Stable Time Loop: After being trapped in stone by Caliban for decades, a future version of Sabrina rescues her past self and switches places with her. The future Sabrina implies this has been done before. The question becomes how did the future!Sabrina awaken to rescue her past self in the first place. The loop is broken by "our" Sabrina when she stops another version of her past self before she is trapped in stone. This results in a Temporal Paradox as now there are two Sabrinas. Thankfully, this is the best outcome. | |

"Could Have Avoided This!"

Her decision to bring Tommy back to life with no sacrifice leads to much more pain than what would have happened if she just left Tommy dead. | |

During the Animated Credits Opening, there are cartoon versions of all the characters as they appear in the series, but near the end (appropriately enough, when the credits read "based upon the comic book by Archie Comics"), you will see an image of the original Sabrina from the comics, who is lying on the floor and propping herself up. This is actually from Sabrina's very first appearance ever, on the pages of Archie's Mad House #22. The image of the original Sabrina is followed by the cover of the second issue of the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina comic book series. | |

Body Horror: When a familiar dies, the corpse that is left behind looks like the goblin and animals forms fused together. Circe curses Hilda to become like a spider. The results are not pretty. It starts with her growing egg sacs in her cheek. Later she grows spider eyes all over her forehead as her body morphs into a spider. Her hands become claws and her mouth becomes spider-like mandibles. This culminates in her transforming into a spider-person. | |

Enemy Mine: Madam Satan and Father Blackwood. They both want Sabrina to sign the book... but they both want to be Satan's highest acolyte (wife, in Madam Satan's case) and thus attempt to fuck one another over several times in the season. Madam Satan wins in the end. At the end of the season, Lilith helps the Spellmans to defeat Satan. Not because she cares about stopping the Apocalypse, but because she's tired of serving him and wants to usurp his crown. | |

Spanner in the Works: The Trinket Man, twice. First he provided Ambrose with the stone of Omphalos to stop Blackwood. Later, he tells Sabrina not to wish the Void away using the Imp and trades her Pandora's box instead. | |

Punny Name: The name of the show itself abbreviates to CAOS, which is pronounced like "chaos". This is meaningful, since what Sabrina herself does throughout the show is introducing chaos to the world as it was before (hoping to change it for the better), and the Plague Kings even outright say that Sabrina "engenders chaos". | |

Godzilla Threshold: The family being attacked by a sleep demon forces Madam Satan to step in and tell Sabrina how to defeat it, revealing her identity in the process. Subverted in that she quickly creates a cover story that she is a Witch trusted by Edward to protect Sabrina, even allowing her to manipulate Sabrina far more directly than before. Invoked later by Ms. Wardwell herself. To force Sabrina to sign her name in the book, she summons the spirit of the 13 witches of Greendale, who in turn summon the Red Angel of Death against both the mortals and the witches. | |

Big Bad Ensemble | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_72cdfc33 | comment |
Big Bad Ensemble: In Part 2 of Season 1, Madame Satan and Blackwood are pursuing entirely different agendas (she's manipulating Sabrina into fulfilling the prophecy, while he's focused on enacting his reactionary reforms for the Church of Night) and don't even interact from that point forward. At the end of the season, Satan himself takes over the Big Bad role, sending Blackwood packing and pushing Madame Satan/Lilith towards working with the Spellmans against him. In season 3, it's another combination of Lucifer in Blackwood's body and the Pagan gods, with the Greendale witches caught in the middle. | |

ColorCodedForYourConvenience | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_740f59b4 | comment |
Color-Coded for Your Convenience: When the Spellmans are trapped by the sleep demon, the light in each character's nightmare world has an unnatural shade to distinguish them from each other and from the real world: red for Sabrina's, blue for Ambrose, yellow for Hilda, and purple for Zelda. This becomes a visual aid when Ms. Wardwell and later Sabrina are jumping through other characters' dreams. While Sabrina often wears an iconic combination of red, black and white, her Mandrake double actually wears blue and brown. It's one of the very early hints that there's something off about her. In Season 4, Sabrina Morningstar wears a red headband instead of Sabrina Spellman's black one. Several characters comment on the change. | |

Ambiguous Time Period | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_7eb2bc15 | comment |
Ambiguous Time Period: The story appears to be set in a Retro Universe just like Riverdale: Notably the only character shown to use a modern cellphone are Harvey Kinkle and Rosalind Walker which grounds the show in The New '10s, but everyone else still uses a landline. Specifically the Spellmans still use a wall phone, and both Hilda and Zelda are shown running to answer it instead of using a cordless phone from the 90s. This, however, could just be a quirk of the Spellman sisters, being long-lived witches, taking their time to modernize. Due to Sabrina's birthday being October 31st and specifically mentioned to happen on a Friday, the year could either be 2003 or 2014. However, there was no lunar eclipse on either of those Halloweens. Dr. Cerberus is a former tv Horror Host, a job that had pretty much died out by the 1980s. Muddying the water is the fact that he's played by an actor in his mid-forties, meaning if the show is indeed set in the 2000s-2010s, he would likely still have been an adolescent during the final days of the genre. Although Roz kind of ruins it in the Christmas special comparing Susie to an Elf on the Shelf, which, despite marketing itself as an old tradition people never heard of, started in 2005. When Harvey references the Dark Phoenix to Sabrina, which she's unfamiliar with, they talk only about the classic X-Men comics, whereas most people in the New Tens would think immediately of the upcoming movie. In Chapter 18, Theo mentions the movie The Descent which was released in 2005 Season 3 briefly pays a visit to New Orleans and to Scotland where, judging by the fashions, it is either the 1920s, the 18thC, and the Iron Age. | |

Left Hanging | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_80b5924 | comment |
Left Hanging: The first part of Season 1 left a few unanswered questions hanging, which isn't too surprising since the second was filmed almost immediately after it, and did address a few. However, a few are still left unanswered. To wit: Who killed Connor? Was it a witch hunter as Ambrose speculated? Was Luke involved in the murder somehow? Did Connor's familiar die of natural causes as Zelda mentioned, or did Luke kill it? Speaking of Luke, are his feelings for Ambrose real or were they caused by Hilda's potion? How and why is the ghost of Dorothea Putnam visiting Susie to give her guidance and comfort? Answered in Part 2 where it's revealed Dorothea encouraged the younger Putnam to come out and acknowledge their true identity as Theo Putnam Who were the witches who cursed the Walker family with blindness? Are the accompanying Blind Seer powers part of the curse or not? This is answered in Part 4. When it’s revealed that the Walkers were witches who denied their heritage and reported other witches to the local witch hunters. Was the plane crash that killed Sabrina's parents really an accident? Also, why is her mother's soul stuck in limbo? Or does this link to a similar fate with her comic book counterpart, where her mind is sane, but her soul is still in limbo forcing Sabrina's mother to remain in an institute!? The second part is answered in the Season 1 Christmas special: Diana's soul was in limbo because she was afraid that Sabrina's aunts (particularly Zelda) wouldn't love and protect her as well as she would have if she'd lived to raise Sabrina herself. Both parts are answered, actually: Diana proves who she is to Sabrina by mentioning the number of the plane that she and Edward were in when it crashed - Flight 2331. Thus, both she and Edward did die in a plane crash, and the only thing that remains to be answered is whether the crash was an accident... or deliberate murder. As Doctor Cerberus is leaving the Spellman house after kissing Hilda, his eyes flicker an unnatural orange. What exactly is he? Answered in Part 2 of the season. He's possessed by an incubus. In the first episode during Sabrina's nightmare/vision, we see that her parents where holding her as a baby, taking her to an altar, where another baby that looks exactly like Sabrina is already there. Present day Sabrina lifts the covers of her baby-self, showing normal human legs. When she lifts the covers of the other baby, however, their legs are deformed and/or burnt or looks like devilish goat legs. What does this mean? Is Sabrina a twin? Or is Sabrina actually the other baby and grew up with a false name? Answered in the season finale: the two babies are a metaphor for Sabrina's true nature — she was actually sired by Satan, making her a human/witch/demon hybrid. | |

| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_8430699a | comment |
Alternate Universe: When Blackwood wishes on the Perverse, he wishes to be and always have been Emperor. Reality changes to fit his wish, but only seems to affect Greendale. Furthermore, it does not create a new reality, simply replacing the original one. The Cosmic itself can create one. This is presented as a close facsimile of the original Sabrina TV series, with the same actors playing the original Zelda and Hilda, complete with corny dialogue and audience laughter. | |

Where the Hell Is Springfield? | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_8504b817 | comment |
Where the Hell Is Springfield?: While Greendale was specified as being in Massachusetts in the comic, in the show it's left ambiguous, except that it's somewhere in New England that's not Connecticut (where the Academy of Unseen Arts is located) or New Hampshire (where the Church of Shadows, Madam Satan's former coven, is based) or Rhode Island (where Harvey moves during a vision). On top of that, if the neighboring town of Riverdale is the same one as in the eponymous show (as a mention of the Sweetwater River in Part 2 might indicate) then the geography gets even more screwy, as all clues in that show point to Riverdale being somewhere in Upstate New York, near the Canadian border. However, because the show is filmed in Vancouver, a lot of the forest scenes are very obviously in a Pacific Northwest climate, as opposed to a New England deciduous forest, making you feel like the show takes place on the complete other side of the country an early draft of the first episode claims that it’s located in the Hudson River Valley. | |

| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_875615dd | comment |
Truth in Television: While usually not supernatural in method, particularly vicious hazing traditions like the harrowings have been known to kill, traumatize, or severely injure children on more than one occasion. The belief that Satan is the embodiment of free will rather than the embodiment of evil is a common one among self-professed Satanists in Real Life, though In-Universe, this seems to be propaganda spread by The Church of Night. | |

Wham Episode | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_8e20979 | comment |
Wham Episode: And it is a doozy. In the season 3, "Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Judas Kiss", everything goes downhill for the protagonists. On Earth, the Pagan gods successfully kidnap Harvey, Roz, Theo and Robin. They kill Robin for being a traitor, and use Harvey as a virgin sacrifice for the Green Man. This sends their plan into action of killing all mortal life on Earth. Roz and Theo are also killed. Zelda had earlier killed Hilda after her spider transformation and buried her in the Cain Pit. Afterwards, Zelda was shot by Mary Wardwell who, with the knowledge that witches exist, Jumped Off The Slippery Slope and shot Zelda. With Zelda near death, Mambo Marie attempted to heal her, while Ambrose and Prudence stand watch. Father Blackwood and an insane Agatha attack, with Prudence killing Agatha and Father Blackwood killing Prudence. Ambrose escapes.

Resurrective Immortality | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_934eb07f | comment |
Resurrective Immortality: While witches can be killed, they can also be resurrected using the Cain's pit in the Spellman's graveyard. Zelda apparently has made a habit of killing Hilda when she’s particularly annoyed at her. She claims it's her right as her older sister. Late in the season Sabrina unlocks great magical potential in herself, she resurrects once and later says she doubts she can be definitely killed at all. | |

Betty and Veronica: Harvey plays the wholesome, artistic and vulnerable Betty to Sabrina's Archie, while Nicholas plays the mysterious, dark and lustful Veronica. As of the end of part 1 of the first season, Nick is not getting anywhere with Sabrina. In fact, he even convinces Harvey to forgive her and take her back after what happened to Tommy. In part 2, however, Sabrina and Nick become an Official Couple, while Harvey begins dating Roz, who plays the Betty to his Archie and Sabrina's Veronica. | |

Enchanted Forest | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_966f0c70 | comment |
Enchanted Forest: You can't throw a stone in the woods near Greendale without hitting a magic portal to Limbo, a mine that goes down to Hell, a tree where thirteen witches were hung, a renegade witch queen, a dark baptism taking place, a bonfire to summon the Red Death. There's also a decent chance that if you go hunting you'll accidentally kill a goblin that has transformed into a stag to have a run in the woods. Considering that Sabrina and Harvey walk through here every day on their way to school and back, it's a true miracle the magic world hasn't been exposed and that mortals don't suffer from magical radiation poisoning with all that magic floating around unchecked. | |

Rewatch Bonus | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_97926168 | comment |
Rewatch Bonus: A lot of things from Part 1 are cast in a new light after the end of Part 2. In particular Nicholas Scratch's willingness to break academy rules and earn the ire of many powerful people (as well as ditch an orgy just to hang out), seems chalked up to a simply infatuation with Sabrina even if it's abrupt, yet makes sense since he was obeying Lucifer's orders to get close to her. | |

Astral Projection: Witches can do this, but it is a fairly dangerous thing to do, as the Astral Plane is meant only for the dead, so the psychopomps patrolling it will snatch any disembodied soul wandering through and take it to the other side. And then there’s the Dweller in the Abyss. | |

Eldritch Location: The Greendale Coal Mines are reputed to contain tunnels leading all the way to Hell, which might be true considering there are ancient demons sealed in its tunnels and its not unusual to run into Satan himself taking a walk through the mines. It turns out that Greendale is built on the spot where Satan fell from Heaven, and the Gates of Hell are in the depths of the mines. Loch Ness, where Blackwood now worships what he calls the "Old Ones" who exist in the Void. | |

What Measure Is a Non-Human? | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_9c45b5a2 | comment |
What Measure Is a Non-Human?: Familiars are goblins forced into service to witches. They're selected out of a catalog, will die a painful death shortly after their witch dies, and can be murdered by their witch with no ill effects to its owner. Zelda even intends to kill one and have Hilda turn it into a purse (to which both Ambrose and Hilda react in horror, but apparently is perfectly acceptable in the witch world). On the flip side, Sabrina and Salem made a contract as equals, which is why Salem is shown to care far more for her than other familiars shown in the series. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: When Zelda drops a spoon, Hilda mentions an old saying "Drop a spoon, baby coming soon". Zelda dismisses it as an old wives' tale. As it happens, when the Blackwood twins are born and the oldest is a girl, Zelda steals the baby and takes it with her to Spellman Manor. Madam Satan's narration for the opening of "The Witching Hour" mentions that Roz's grandmother is preparing a death shroud for herself. Sure enough, she dies by the end of the episode. Roz's introduction in the opening focuses on her eyes; the only animation she does in said opening is to blink. Her eyes become a major plot point when it's revealed that she is destined to become a Blind Seer, and the more she loses her eyesight, the more she will be able to see things with her "cunning." When Batibat recognises Madam Satan, she describes her as the Mother of Demons; if you're familiar with your demonology, one can quickly determine her true identity to be Lilith. When Madam Satan disguised herself as a tarot reader she showed Zelda the high priestess card, at the end of season 2 Zelda becomes High Priestess after Father Blackwood flees after his attempt to poison the entire Coven. In season 2, Nicholas Scratch plays Lucifer in the play "The Passion of Lucifer Morningstar". It is revealed that he was sent by Lucifer to seduce Sabrina and in the season 2 finale, he becomes a vessel to imprison Lucifer. Nick's name itself could be viewed as foreshadowing as "Saint Nick" and "Old Scratch" are nick names for the devil. | |

Feminist Fantasy | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_9f74002a | comment |
Feminist Fantasy: A somewhat twisted example. On one hand, the main character and nearly all her allies are women, and Sabrina's main opponent (that she is aware of) is a man who is a very patriarchal leader of the Greendale Coven. And she has a mentor in Miss Wardwell who often advises her to use her power to conquer the men in her life, culminating with Miss Wardwell telling her to sign the Book of the Beast at the end of the series to "take" Satan's power, not be given it. However, the twisted aspect is that Miss Wardwell is really Lilith, a demon who killed and took over the real Miss Wardwell's appearance, and despite her appearing to be an ally to Sabrina, she is really evil through and through, and all of her actions are to manipulate Sabrina into selling her soul to Satan. Even though she tells Sabrina that Sabrina would be taking Satan's power, Lilith knows that's BS and is simply manipulating Sabrina. And at the end of the first season, she succeeds in tricking Sabrina into Satan's thrall. | |

Karma Houdini: Repeatedly Invoked by Sabrina and Played for Drama as her main character flaw. While she almost never treats others badly or behaves in a way that would obviously merit karmic backlash (e.g. being a bully like Prudence or a manipulator like Ms. Wardwell), she does continually formulate plans in such a way as to try to get herself out of dealing with the consequences of any action she takes, and fails to ever truly learn that some consequences either can't or shouldn't be escaped. | |

Christianity Is Catholic | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_a8a5e4ed | comment |
Christianity is Catholic: The Church of Night seems to be under the impression that Catholicism is not just the only form of Christianity but apparently the only other religion in the world. Especially strange given that the show is set in the historically Protestant United States. This may be somewhat justified in that the show seems to take place in Massachusetts (what with the witch hunts), which, despite its Protestant history (once again, the witch hunts), is now predominately Catholic. This is in force to the extent that the Church of Night is basically just dark Catholicism, more or less. Sabrina's Dark Baptism takes place on her 16th birthday, but that Dark Baptism is more akin to a Confirmation, and she essentially had a, er, christening into the Church of Night which basically held the same significance as a Catholic Baptism does (her soul was pledged to the Dark Lord by her father, much as a Christian baptism pledges the infant's soul to Jesus). The Dark Lord is actually specifically referred to as the Church of Night's savior. The religious authority of the Church of Night on Earth is Father Blackwood. Everything about the Church of Night and witch society is just an aesthetic inversion of Catholicism and American society, with much of the substance unchanged. Basically the only point where this is not so is that Father Blackwood has a wife and kids much like a Protestant minister would. note The only exception for Latin Catholic priests to have living wives is if they are former Anglican (or certain Protestant) priests who converted. Then again, who is to say that the witches don't have some counterpart to just that? Played with as the two religions turn out to be Not So Similar. While they have structural similarities and similar issues with Straw Misogynist characters, the Church of Night really is actively devoted to violating any and all taboos of regular human society. They're cannibals, murderers, and answer to a very God Is Evil version of Satan. Sabrina figuring this out is part of her character growth. Finally Averted in Part 2, where a group of witch hunters has a distinctly Mormon missionary aesthetic. | |

Familiar | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_a8cff6a | comment |
Familiar: As part of their Dark Baptism, witches choose a familiar to serve them. These are typically goblins who assume the form of regular animals and are usually picked by the witches from a book. Sabrina, however, takes an unknown spirit to be her familiar instead in what is explicitly not a master and servant relationship. Since Salem is with her of his own free will, she gets a lot more and better service of him than most witches can expect. | |

Mage Species: As other adaptations of the story have already shown, witches are considered a separate race from humans and even though they can breed normally with mortals, the resulting child is considered a "mutt" as Sabrina has experienced first hand at the Academy. Whether they're actually a different race or species or just another form of Fantastic Racism towards mortals has not been discussed; however, both the thirteen witches of Greendale and the demon Apophis immediately recognize Sabrina as a half-witch so there may be some truth to the claim. | |

Adults Are Useless: Thankfully averted. Unlike most TV shows with a mainly teen cast, all the adults who appear in the show are heavily involved with the story. This is particularly true of both parent figures in Sabrina's life, Hilda and Zelda, who are always ready to help her get out of trouble; and if they should be unavailable, she has a second pair of senior mentors in Ambrose and Ms. Wardwell. The exception to this is the very misogynistic Principal, who serves as the antagonist for most of Sabrina's non-supernatural troubles. | |

| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_aed65980 | comment |
All for Nothing: Season 2 deals with Sabrina rejecting her real father, Lucifer, and sealing him inside Nick. In the opening episode of season 3 Sabrina accepts being Queen of Hell, making Nick's sacrifice this. The main mitigating factor is that Sabrina, not Lucifer, is in charge. | |

Face–Heel Turn: Agatha sides with Blackwood after being driven insane by the Old Gods. Mary Wardwell also sides with Blackwood in unleashing the Terrors on Greendale. She feels she is justified after her mind was messed with by Sabrina and before that when Lilith stole her identity. | |

Fate Worse than Death: The good thing is, Blackwood is immortal. His body is not, as seen with it decomposing and filled with maggots after his head was cut off. Later, Prudence chainsaws his body apart and scatters the pieces over the world, so he can never come back together. | |

Loophole Abuse | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_b1dde8fd | comment |
Loophole Abuse: The ownership of Sabrina's soul comes down to dueling cases of it. Her father signed her name over to Satan shortly after her birth, but her mother had her baptized the day before that, giving the Catholic Church a prior claim. Sabrina figures that there's no reason why the Human Sacrifice required for a Resurrection Ritual needs to stay dead, when it's a witch who can be resurrected in the Cain Pit. This blows up in her face quite horribly. | |

Jesus Taboo | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_b25df244 | comment |
Jesus Taboo: Despite the witches' antagonism with the Catholic Church and the Abrahamic God being a constant element in the show, mentions of Jesus are conspicuously absent for all of Part 1 and only sporadically mentioned in the second half of Part 2. Even when talked about, he is almost always referred to as "The Nazarene", with his actual name only uttered twice. | |

Truer to the Text: In at least one respect, compared to Sabrina the Teenage Witch - Sabrina has her iconic bob rather than the long hair the sitcom popularized.note Admittedly, Archie's did give Sabrina long hair prior to the show. However, it wasn't as commonly used until the sitcom's success. In addition, Melissa Joan Hart did don the bob during the sitcom's third season. | |

Whole Costume Reference: Sabrina's red dress with a Peter Pan collar is a copy of Rosemary's red pregnancy dress in Rosemary's Baby (it's just shorter). When Quentin comes to the door, he's dressed exactly the same as the headmistress's nephew in Suspiria (1977). Harvey wears a crop top with the number 10 while lying in bed wearing headphones, which is Glenn's outfit when he dies in A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984). | |

Incest Subtext | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_bdc453a0 | comment |
Incest Subtext: Boatloads, between Sabrina and her father, Lucifer; not exactly a surprise considering he's the Devil. It's also implied quite consistently that Zelda and Edward were pretty damn close: her reminiscences of their school days sound like a teenage girl talking about her first crush, particularly when she mentions him "dazzling people with his knowledge and erudition"; Blackwood brings him up while proposing to Zelda, in terms that are much more appropriate to a romantic rival than a disapproving sibling; and the way they gaze at one another when she meets his spirit between life and death does absolutely nothing to lessen the impression. | |

Hot Witch: Witches are immortal and visibly age much more slowly than muggles do, and as such most of the witches on the show, both male and female, are presented as youthful beauties. Even the visibly older ones are still shown as attractive, like Zelda (who resembles Golden Age Hollywood screen starlet) and Miss Wardwell/Madame Satan (a hot cougar who personifies the Femme Fatale and is arguably the show's main Ms. Fanservice). Only Hilda is portrayed as anything less than instantly desirable. | |

Writers Cannot Do Math: Inverted. The Academy of Unseen Arts is made up of perfectly interlocking pentagonal rooms that may go on forever. Pentagons cannot be used to tile a plane in normal space, but it's justified here because this is not normal space. Hilda mentions being drunk at the coronation of Queen Victoria, while Zelda refers to the Greendale Thirteen as being contemporaries of the Spellmans' ancestors. Witches are shown to live a very long time, but just how long a witch generation lasts has yet to be clarified. | |

Bad Future: After the events of the season 3 Wham Episode (see below). Sabrina was trapped for decades in stone. Meanwhile most life on Earth died and was replaced with a Garden of Evil. Only Ambrose and Father Blackwood survived, with each going Mad From The Isolation. Meanwhile, Caliban became King of Hell and attempted to invade the mortal realm, only to be defeated by the Pagan gods. After Hell's retreat, the forces of Heaven wiped out the remaining demons, leaving Hell empty. When Sabrina is freed, she learns that pretty much everyone she knew and loved was dead and gone. | |

Music Genre Dissonance | |

Music Genre Dissonance: In Part 4, a band called Satanic Panic, which is apparently blessed by Satan himself, performs at a concert. They are called a metal band, but their music sounds nothing like metal. The band members also wear mohawks, a hairstyle characteristic of punk subculture, rather than metal.* The song they covered was originally performed by a death rock band called 45 Grave. Death rock is a genre derived from punk rock. | |

Whole-Plot Reference | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_e303d198 | comment |
Whole-Plot Reference: The Dark Lord suing Sabrina for breach of promise is one to The Devil and Daniel Webster, going as far as naming Sabrina’s lawyer Daniel Webster. The premise of the first season, which has our heroine decide between the path of light or the path of dark during her 16th birthday, forms the basis of the first two books of The Caster Chronicles and its film adaptation Beautiful Creatures. Already mentioned under Cain and Abel, but Zelda's nightmare is basically a dark retelling of the story of Cain and Abel from The Bible. Not only that, but the Spellmans are in possession of soil from Cain's garden. | |

Hollywood Satanism | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_e390612a | comment |
Hollywood Satanism: Generally played straight. All witches and warlocks worship Satan, although their loyalty varies between individuals. Many of the Church of Night's practises are warped versions of Christian services such as the Dark Baptism when they turn 16 and pledge themselves to the church. Other rituals such as the Feast of Feasts feature Human Sacrifice and cannibalism of the victim. Father Blackwood pays lip service to the beliefs of Real Life Satanists that Satan is a personification and representation of free will, but the series has Satan as a very real figure and the Church of Night's promises of free will are not all they seem (see Hypocrite below). | |

As Long as It Sounds Foreign: Chapter Twenty-Six shows a book supposedly in Greek. However, the title of the chapter (or story) shown reads "Pygmalion ais Spsthlptthre", which, aside from "Pygmalion", which is also misspelled, is pure gibberish. | |

Roz is a curly-haired non-conformist like Jenny and with supernatural abilities like Dreama. Susie is unpopular and awkward like Valerie, while being androgynous like Pi from the animated series.

Star-Crossed Lovers: Initially it seems like the story is setting this up with Sabrina and Harvey, since Sabrina is a witch, and Harvey comes from a family of witch hunters. However, later on Sabrina and Harvey break up, but manage to warm up to each other again after the breakup. By the end of the series, they are True Companions along with Roz and Theo. | |

Adaptation Species Change: During an exorcism designed to call upon the power of dead witches of the past, several pagan goddesses are mentioned, implying that instead of deities, they were really human witches. Salem is no longer a transfigured human warlock but a goblin who takes the form of a cat. | |

Blue-and-Orange Morality | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_e8e56799 | comment |
Blue-and-Orange Morality: When it isn't just straight up evil (such as their utter contempt for mortals), a lot of Witch morality tends to be this. For example, once a year a witch is selected to be killed and cannibalized by the rest of the coven. Everyone in the coven aside from Nick are perfectly okay with this, with Zelda only being concerned at all when Sabrina forces her way into the ceremony. And the chosen sacrifice for the year isn't only not scared about her imminent death, she is excited for it. | |

Hollywood Exorcism | |
| Chilling Adventures of Sabrina / int_ee519430 | comment |
Hollywood Exorcism: An interesting variation in that witches are unable to perform regular exorcisms as they are Catholic rituals that work by invoking the power of God himself to cast out the demon, meaning that no Satan-worshiping witch could accomplish one. This means that a witch exorcism requires them to use their own power and call upon the powers of generations of dead witches in order to cast the demon out by brute force. | |

Decomposite Character: Salem's role from the 1990s sitcom as Sabrina's confidant and his background as a warlock being punished for breaking the rules of the magic world were given to Ambrose Spellman. As a result, Salem has been downgraded from a warlock to a goblin who has taken the role of a familiar. Tommy, Harvey's brother, is killed, and Sabrina is manipulated by Madame Satan into resurrecting him, which goes wrong, which, in a slightly different way, happened to Harvey himself in the comic. Sabrina usually has one best friend in the 1990s sitcom and animated series. Here, she has two friends named Roz and Suzie. | |

Played with as the two religions turn out to be Not So Similar. While they have structural similarities and similar issues with Straw Misogynist characters, the Church of Night really is actively devoted to violating any and all taboos of regular human society. They're cannibals, murderers, and answer to a very God Is Evil version of Satan. Sabrina figuring this out is part of her character growth. | |
