Think *Carrie* meets *Mean Girls* with a dash of Salem-era paranoia. That’s the pitch behind **The Body**, Netflix’s new coming-of-age horror series from *Under the Bridge* creator Quinn Shephard — and it’s landing on the streamer this November.

## What’s the Story?

The show follows three badly-behaved Catholic school girls — Anya, Elise, and Lisbeth — who start having prophetic visions after a dance-team initiation spirals out of control, triggering mass hysteria across their town. Shephard describes the tone as “gritty camp,” blending raunchy teen drama with genuine Catholic horror.

## Why It’s Generating Buzz

Shephard has cited *Carrie*, *Jennifer’s Body*, *Heavenly Creatures*, and even the [Salem witch trials](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salem_witch_trials) as touchstones — grounding a supernatural premise in something that feels uncomfortably real. She calls it “a love letter to ’90s and Y2K teen movies and erotic thrillers,” a tone that’s rare on Netflix’s current slate.

The cast is stacked too, with Sofia Wylie, Nnamdi Asomugha, and Louisa Krause rounding out a large ensemble alongside the three leads. With Riley Keough’s Felix Culpa banner also producing, expect the same unsettling, atmosphere-driven storytelling that made *Under the Bridge* a critical hit.
