TheMidnightClub is ultimately a story about storytelling, and how even the scariest tales can bring healing and hope.

Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers from The Midnight Club. Mike Flanagan and Leah Fong’s The Midnight Club follows a group of terminal young adults spending the last months of their lives together at a hospice. As expected, the series dives deep into the effects a terminal diagnosis has on a person, especially when the patients are so young, with so much to live for.

It’s for that reason that Natsuki comes up with a story to confess she tried to kill herself. It’s also through a tale that Anya reveals her past as a drug addict. Even Kevin uses a story to admit to himself that he’s not the good guy everyone thinks he is and that he’s actually tired of trying to please the people around him.

But even outside the club’s meetings, the series is all about stories and how they have the power to give us hope. It’s because of a story that Ilonka goes to Brightcliffe, chasing ghosts while hoping there is some magic in the place to save her. And because of the Paragon story, the whole club is willing to sacrifice their most precious possessions to save Anya, hoping to make a fairytale come true.
