The ‘Chilling Adventures of Sabrina’ star has partnered with Hatch, a mobile app that curates scary stories for its users, to create a thrilling campaign trailer for the upcoming Halloween season. Titled ‘Goodnight, Phone,’ the trailer features Shipka in a suspenseful tale that will leave you at the edge of your seat.

The 20-year-old actress, who has become a household name for her role as Sabrina Spellman, revealed that Halloween is one of her favorite holidays and she goes all out to celebrate it.
The first essential on Shipka’s list is, of course, a good horror movie. “I love watching scary movies during Halloween time, especially the classics like ‘Halloween’ and ‘The Exorcist’,” she shared. “But I also like to mix it up with some new releases, so I’m always on the lookout for the latest horror flicks to add to my watchlist.”
Next on her list is pumpkin carving. “I have always enjoyed carving pumpkins, it’s such a fun and creative activity,” Shipka said. “I usually go for the traditional jack-o-lantern face, but this year, I’m thinking of trying something different and challenging myself with a more intricate design.”
But what makes Shipka’s Halloween celebrations truly special is spending time with her loved ones. “I love getting together with my friends and family, dressing up in costumes, and just having a good time,” she shared. “It’s always a blast when we all get into the Halloween spirit and create memories together.”
And speaking of costumes, Shipka revealed that she has already started planning hers for this year. “I can’t give away too much, but let’s just say it’s going to be a nod to one of my favorite horror characters,” she teased. “I always put a lot of effort into my Halloween costumes, so I can’t wait for everyone to see it.”
Apart from her personal Halloween essentials, Shipka also shared her excitement for her collaboration with Hatch. “I have been a fan of Hatch for a while now, and I think it’s such a cool app for horror enthusiasts like myself,” she said. “So, when they approached me for this project, I was thrilled to be a part of it.”
The trailer, ‘Goodnight, Phone,’ is a perfect combination of Shipka’s love for horror and her talent as an actress. It showcases her range as she takes on the role of a woman being terrorized by mysterious phone calls.

“I had so much fun filming this trailer with the Hatch team, and I hope viewers will enjoy it as much as I did,” Shipka expressed. “It’s the perfect way to get into the Halloween spirit and kick off the spooky season.”
