The Midnight Club Season 1 Soundtrack — Key Facts & Archival Overview
The following primary parameters are verified by the INFOSAURS Editorial Desk in accordance with public registries and archival documentation.
Mike Flanagan, the director of The Haunting of Hill House and The Haunting of Bly Manor, became one of Netflix's go-to people for horror programmes. With the release of The Midnight Club, his third series, Midnight Mass, launched a second franchise. This most recent series, however, also borrows from another master of teen horror, Christopher Pike, making it a double-barreled terrifying shot. The songs from The Midnight Club's Season 1 soundtrack take Pike's setting from the 1990s and transform it into a modern-day ode to classic jams.
The following contains Season 1 spoilers for The Midnight Club. Pike's The Midnight Club, which was first released in 1994, was set in the current hospice facility for young people with terminal diseases. However, Flanagan's adaptation is a little more overt and filled with jump scares, whereas Pike's book is a slow-build thriller.
The book's original 1990s setting is the one aspect of the series that does not change. The lives of terminally sick children may have a little more technology to deal with, but the unfairness of their shorter lives and the struggle with mortality are the same. The Midnight Club could have easily been changed to a modern series. However, Flanagan preserved Pike's world in its pre-broadband internet environment, giving the soundtrack the opportunity to bring back a number of songs from an era before Spotify.
