Sabrina The Teenage Witch was a hugely popular show back in the 90s and earlier this year details of the show's reboot were revealed. Now, fans have the chance to see a teaser trailer for the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and it's definitely lived up to its new name.

The teaser trailer for Chilling Adventures of Sabrina was only uploaded to YouTube yesterday (13th September), but it is already trending on the video platform and racked up over one million views! The video shows Sabrina Spellman (played by Kiernan Shipka) on her 16th birthday, which is very special for the half-witch, half-mortal teenage girl.

The trailer starts with candles being lit for Sabrina's birthday as a creepy version of 'Happy Birthday' is sung. It then shows the new-look Sabrina, who is very grown up, with a bouncy blonde bob. The trailer also re-confirms that the series is from the executive producer of the popular Netflix series Riverdale.

Earlier this year, the first look at Kiernan as the new Sabrina was released with a photo on Twitter revealing the actress sitting on a director's chair which had the words Chilling Adventures of Sabrina written on the back.

The cast of the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina were confirmed earlier this year to include Lucy Davis aka Dawn from The Office and Kiernan Shipka, who's previously starred in Mad Men and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.

Lucy will play quirky Aunt Hilda, and they've even found a new black cat to take on the very important role of Salem!
