Stephen King's 8-Episode Sleeper Hit Is TV's Next Big Horror Series Before Season 2




The Stephen King reign continues with MGM+'s The Institute, which is already gearing up for a second season. Based on King's 2019 novel, the series may be one of the author's more recent adaptations but still contains allthe classic ingredients longtime fans have come to expect: small-town mysteries, ordinary people confronting unimaginable evil, and children burdened with extraordinary gifts. Instead of attending a school for gifted youngsters, however, these telekinetic and telepathic children find themselves imprisoned in a facility that's using them as test subjects. Kidnapped from their families and subjected to brutal experiments, they become victims of adults who believe their powers can be weaponized for the greater good. If King's work has taught fans anything, it's that it's never a good idea to mess around with psychic powers.
