The new Disney+ series “Just Beyond” premieres Wednesday and promises plenty of thrills and chills just in time for Halloween. And if you watch closely, the show features a slew of spooky Atlanta sights.

The eight-episode anthology series was created by writer Seth Grahame-Smith and is based on Goosebump’s writer R.L. Stine’s Boom! Studios graphic novel series. Both a comedy and horror, each episode features a new story filled with supernatural wonder and parallel universes.

“I’ve always wanted to make a genre anthology series that families could enjoy together, and do it in a way that delivered for kids and adults alike,” Grahame-Smith told Deadline.

The genre-bending series began filming in Atlanta and Decatur in March, according to Project Casting, with director Marc Webb directing the series’ first two episodes. The fabulous (and supposedly haunted) Fox Theatre even makes an appearance in the show’s trailer.

The show stars Mckenna Grace, Lexi Underwood, Nasim Pedrad and Gabriel Bateman.
