    Stranger Things may be nearing its end, but Netflix wants to stay in business with creators the Duffer Brothers for years to come.

    The streaming giant says that it has ordered a new “atmospheric horror series” called Something Very Bad Is Going To Happen . Haley Z. Boston is the creator and showrunner of the series, with The Duffer Brothers and Hilary Leavitt producing on behalf of their Upside Down Pictures banner.

    The logline for Something Very Bad Is Going To Happen describes it as “an atmospheric horror series set at a wedding, following a bride and groom in the week leading up to their ill-fated nuptials. That’s not a spoiler – just read the title…”

    “We were knocked flat when we first read Haley’s script,” said Matt and Ross Duffer in a statement. “She is a major new talent with a singular voice — her writing is twisted, terrifying, funny, and just… very Haley. We feel so lucky to be producing her first show, and we can’t wait to share her vision with the rest of the world.”

    The brothers are currently in production on the final season of Stranger Things for Netflix, and have a handful of other projects lined up with the streamer, including the series The Boroughs , which will begin production this fall; and a live-action adaptation of the manga series Death Note .

    Boston is also familiar to Netflix, having written for Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities and Brand New Cherry Flavor .

    “We’re thrilled to collaborate once again with dream partners Matt, Ross and Hilary to bring this unexpected and spine-tingling story to life through Haley’s uniquely riveting vision,” added Peter Friedlander, VP of scripted series (US & Canada) at Netflix.
