The episode soon evolves into a more sophisticated take on death, with Anya (Ruth Codd) nearly reaching the end of her limited lifetime. This was one of the highlights of the episode.

The Midnight Club episode 6 review A familiar Mike Flanagan direction
A still from The Midnight Club (Image via Netflix) Having just crossed the halfway mark of The Midnight Club, the series is already starting to resemble some past works of the modern master of horror .
