What Is the Wednesday Series About?
If you haven’t watched the series yet and want a quick summary, here’s what the first season of Wednesday is about (though nothing beats going to Netflix and watching the series with some tasty popcorn).
The series follows the story of Wednesday Addams, who is expelled from her human school after trying to attack the bullies of her younger brother, Pericles. It is then that she arrives at Nevermore Academy, the same place where her parents, Morticia and Gomez, studied many years ago.
There, Wednesday is welcomed by the headmistress Larissa Weems, a family friend, and her new roommate, Enid Sinclair, who feels like a failure for not becoming a werewolf like the rest of her family.
Although Wednesday tries to escape the academy, she soon uncovers a mystery that compels her to stay: both her past and future are tied to an enigmatic prophecy. Moreover, a strange creature is lurking in the woods, and Wednesday is determined to solve all these mysteries.
