Sounds about right:
Satanic Temple sues Netflix' Chilling Adventures of Sabrina for Grand Theft Goat

A few words on Sabrina, no spoilers beyond ep 2 )

Haunting of Hill House is a lot more successful. No particular spoilers here either, except for a Buffy reference that will alert people to the fact that people DIE in this horror series )

Of course, being Netflix, neither show sets out to truly unnerve the audience or subvert the expectations of either viewers or algorithms. Both essentially set out to be the Stranger Things of their particular target demographic (where I obviously fit into one more than the other). After being disappointed by how Castle Rock fizzled out, I'm still not convinced it's possible - or rather, economically feasible - to make a bingeable long-form horror story in this medium. We'll see what they come up with next. At least The Curious Creations of Christine McConnell has cake and murderous muppets.

But damn, episode 6 of Hill House was good.
