Spoilers below for anyone who hasn’t yet streamed the Season 1 finale of Widow’s Bay via Apple TV subscription, so be warned!
Apple TV quickly cemented itself as a go-to service for top-notch sci-fi like Silo, Dark Matter and Severance (my personal favorite), but it took more than six years to deliver its first full-on horror series. Widow’s Bay was more than worth the wait, however, as evidenced by an all-star fanbase that includes Guillermo del Toro, Hideo Kojima and Stephen King. Thankfully, creator Katie Dippold wrapped the first season as strongly as it began, and even though I guessed the ending twist, it didn’t take away any of the impact.
