Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen is an eight episode horror drama series created and showrun by Haley Z. Boston.

The Duffer Brothers serve as executive producers through their Upside Down Pictures production company.

The series blends wedding romance with psychological horror and slow burning dread.

Its tone feels intimate, unsettling, and emotionally sharp rather than loud or excessively violent.

The story follows Rachel Harkin and her fiancé Nicky Cunningham before their highly anticipated wedding ceremony.

They visit Nicky’s wealthy family estate, which sits isolated and soaked in quiet, unsettling tension.

Strange events soon disrupt their stay and turn excitement into deep suspicion and fear.

Secrets surface, relationships strain, and the atmosphere grows heavier with each passing moment.

The series explores fear of commitment and emotional vulnerability through a dark supernatural lens.

It shows how love can twist into terror when trust starts to fracture.

The horror reflects real anxieties surrounding marriage, family expectations, and identity loss.

Camila Morrone plays Rachel with emotional intensity and growing paranoia.

Adam DiMarco portrays Nicky as loving yet mysteriously distant under pressure.

The supporting cast includes Jennifer Jason Leigh, Ted Levine, and several powerful character actors.

The show relies on atmosphere, silence, and tension rather than quick jump scares.

Its influences include Rosemary’s Baby and Carrie, shaping its slow psychological horror style.

Netflix will release all eight episodes together on March 26, 2026.

Viewers can expect a full binge experience packed with mounting dread and emotional tension.

Filming took place in Mississauga, Ontario during early 2025.

The location adds a cold, elegant mood to the secluded estate setting.

The Duffer Brothers mentor the project without controlling daily creative decisions.

They support Boston’s vision while letting her voice shape the narrative.

This series promises a chilling reminder that love stories can hide terrifying endings.
