You can’t have a spooky season without a Stephen King movie, and, thankfully, Netflix is providing subscribers with a new one: Mr. Harrigan’s Phone, which is coming to Netflix on Wednesday.

Written and directed by John Lee Hancock (The Blind Side, The Highwaymen), this adaptation of King’s 2020 novella tells the story of a young boy named Craig (played by Jaeden Martell) who takes a job reading out loud to an elderly billionaire, Mr. Harrigan (played by Donald Sutherland). Craig spends a significant portion of his childhood reading out loud to Mr. Harrigan, and comes to consider him a close friend. In his teen years, Craig buys Mr. Harrigan an iPhone, as a way to keep in touch. But then, when Mr. Harrigan dies, Craig finds himself still receiving messages from his late, elderly friend.
