With the over-arcing season-to-seasons narratives being mysteries, the introduction of magic kept appropriately in check could simply become part of the tight-knit uncertainty.

The former is played off to be a hallucination and the latter a harmless prank, but they set the scene for the series to incorporate more direct and visceral supernatural elements without contradicting the existing visual language. The finale contained a zombified Jason Blossom, reaching out to Cheryl as she almost drowns in the frozen Sweetwater river, and Betty's locker was vandalized with pig's blood and a voodoo doll in a scene with heavy connotations toward Stephen King's Carrie. Visually the show has already become comfortable with bizarre, horrifying imagery and classic horror tropes. And say what you want about how unrealistic some aspects of Riverdale's first season were, the characters' practically mutant abilities to avoid pimples and body fat is very different to the introduction of an entire mythology of witchcraft and sophomore satanism.īut just because Sabrina herself comes with a supernatural side, it doesn't mean the show has to completely change its make-up.

Riverdale showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa has spoken to Sabrina joining the series on a couple of occasions, repeating his openness to the possibility, with his main concern being introducing genuine supernatural elements to such an otherwise earthly show. Towards the end of this season, fans on Twitter had begun voicing that they would like to see Sabrina in the modern Archie comics re-imagining, with Dove Cameron at the top of many of their lists to play the teenage witch. One notable absence among the ever-evolving melodramas, however, is the lack of any mention of fan-favourite Sabrina the Teenage Witch or her hometown Greendale, which is located right across the Sweetwater river from Riverdale. Despite Jason Blossom's murderer having been revealed an episode earlier, the season finale still managed to provide a few surprises that set up some major plotlines for the next season. As Riverdaleends its first season, speculation now turns to what can be expected from the upcoming season two, which is set to premiere this Fall.
