Netflix's 'Midnight Mass' Trailer Will Reel Horror Fans in with Its Supernatural Plot

Exploring the core elements of Netflix's 'Midnight Mass' Trailer Will Reel Horror Fans in with Its Supernatural Plot—uncover what experts are saying.

Gloomy music kicks the Midnight Mass teaser off, which begins with a young man riding his bicycle past a Catholic church.

“We tend to dislike mysteries,” says the narrator, setting the ominous tone for the series. Two men are then seated in front of each other: the disgraced Matt Saracen (Zach Gilford) and Father Paul (Hamish Linklater).

“You feel uncomfortable not knowing,” the narrator says, while viewers see quick shots of Matt and the seemingly deserted island.

As the trailer continues, people can be seen boarding up their businesses and homes, and it appears that something out of the ordinary is on its way. A dead cat can also be seen laying on the ground as a bird hovers over it, which further proves something is definitely amiss.

While Matt tries to sleep, the ghost of a woman with bruises and lights in her head appears in his room. The trailer continues with a series of unexplainable events and Matt questioning everything that he sees.

While he tries to get an explanation from Father Paul, the events around Matt continue to grow from weird to supernatural. From discolored eyes and ghost sightings, to what appear to be island secrets, Midnight Mass takes viewers for the ultimate ride into the unknown.
