American Horror Story and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina spark shared universe theory with epic witch crossover
AMERICAN Horror Story and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina have sparked a shared universe theory with an epic witch crossover.
The anthology series has featured a family of witches - the Montgomery's - in season three's Coven and again in season eight's Apocalypse.
One of the witches is called Madison Montgomery, a former actress who joins Miss Robichaux's Academy and is played by Emma Roberts.
In Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, the young witch's Spellman relatives often reference their ancestors, and on one occasion, Hilda mentioned a cousin named Montgomery who was a movie star.
If that was indeed a reference to Emma's AHS character, it wouldn't be the first shared universe for the show.
Netflix's Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is based on the Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa's comic book series of the same name and is derived from Archie Comics characters.
It serves as a sister series to the CW's Riverdale, with the two shows sharing the same creators as well as a number of cameos and references despite being on different networks.
So it's not totally implausible that American Horror Story - created by Ryan Murphy - could be another shared universe, especially considering Ryan's multi-million dollar deal with Netflix.
However, the Montgomery reference in Chilling Adventures of Sabrina could also be a nod to Elizabeth Montgomery, the actress who played Samantha on another hit witch show, Bewitched.
Meanwhile fans of the Netflix show have declared they would happily burn in hell for demon prince Caliban.
Netflix fans have claimed they’d happily burn in hell for The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina’s demon prince CalibanThe character - played by Australian actor Sam Corlett - made his debut in season three of the hit series.
Despite challenging Sabrina (Kiernan Shipka) for the Throne of Hell, Caliban has won a legion of fans -who would happily go to hell to see his toned torso in the flesh.
Twitter is full of thirst tweets about the hunky hell boy, with one writing: "If Sabrina doesn’t want caliban, i volunteer af. he’s too gorgeous."
Another drooled: "#ChillingAdventuresofSabrina IS EVERYBODY IN HELL HOT AS HELL OR SOMETHING (Pun intended) if Hell really contains Lucifer and Caliban appearing shirtless in front of me then PLEASE I wanna go to Hell."
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is available to stream on Netflix.
