Although the original tweet has been deleted, the quote is making the rounds online, sparking interest in this fan-favorite series that has resonated with viewers beyond just Stephen King.

The series in question is “MIDNIGHT MASS” on Netflix, praised by King as a “dense, beautifully photographed terror tale” that delivers a high pitch of horror by the last episode. The series premiered on Netflix in 2021, but with the volume of content available, many may have missed it the first time around. Whether you’re a horror enthusiast or a fan of Stephen King, this series is definitely worth a watch.
