“Killing Eve,” “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” hit streaming services in October

A monthly look at what’s scheduled to be added to the catalogues of streaming services Netflix Canada, CraveTV and Amazon Prime Video:

TOP PICKS

Halloween is right around the corner, so it’s appropriate that Netflix is doubling down on terrifying original TV series. Among the highlights is “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina,” a angsty and gothic reboot of “Sabrina the Teenage Witch”; documentary series “Haunted,” where actor recreations help real people share frightening events of their lives; and “The Haunting of Hill House,” a spooky tale of a family who faces spirits living in their home. For the faint of heart, join social media sensation Christine McConnell as she creates haunting confections and creepy crafts for the season on “Curious Creations of Christine McConnell.”

Sandra Oh made history at the Emmy Awards this year becoming the first Asian woman nominated for lead actress in a drama. And critics suggest the Ottawa-raised actor’s role on “Killing Eve,” where she plays an MI5 operative, is one of her meatiest characters yet. The thriller follows Oh as she becomes embroiled in an assignment to track down a vicious female contract killer who takes delight in twisted executions. As the two intermingle, they both become increasingly obsessed with the other’s motivations. The first season of “Killing Eve” lands on CraveTV on Oct. 5.

“Mad Men” creator Matthew Weiner returns to complex human narratives with “The Romanoffs,” his new anthology series for Amazon Prime Video, which tells eight stories of people who believe themselves to be descendants of the Russian royal family. Each standalone episode features a cast of acclaimed actors, including Aaron Eckhart, Diane Lane, Isabelle Huppert, Noah Wyle and Paul Reiser. The series debuts two episodes of Oct. 12 and rolls out the rest over the following six Fridays.
