Ortega told Tudum, “[Wednesday] sticks to her guns, and she’s not out to please anybody,” adding, “Which, as someone who used to be an immense people pleaser, I really respect.”

The official description of the show’s first season was, “years as a student at Nevermore Academy. She attempts to master her emerging psychic ability, thwart a monstrous killing spree that has terrorized the local town, and solve the supernatural mystery that embroiled her parents 25 years ago — all while navigating her new and very tangled relationships at Nevermore.”

Millar and Gough said, “[The stalker proves] that threats remain out there… to both Wednesday and the school,” adding, “Not all not loose ends have been tied up neatly as she thinks they have.”
