What is Wednesday About?

According to Netflix, Wednesday will maintain the same tone and spirit as previous Addams Family adaptations but will take the characters and plot in a new way.

As for the premise, Netflix describes Wednesday as “a supernaturally-infused detective mystery chronicling Wednesday’s years as a student at the odd Nevermore Academy.”

Wednesday Addams “attempts to master her emerging psychic ability, thwart a monstrous killing spree that has terrorized the local town, and solve the supernatural mystery that entangled her parents 25 years ago, all while navigating her new and extremely complicated relationships with the strange and diverse student body”

A supernatural mystery will be told through a combination of dark humor and drama on the new show. Focusing on Wednesday, we can expect a fresh twist on the classic coming-of-age tale, with the protagonist likely to cause plenty of trouble on her own while navigating Nevermore Academy and the mystery from over two decades ago.
