The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina creator Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa has teased some hell-raising new details about Part 4 of the Netflix series, currently in production, saying "each episode is like its own mini horror movie." Speaking to TheWrap, Aguirre-Sacasa revealed that Part 4 of Sabrina's supernatural story will be different from Part 3, as the show establishes a new blend of brew by throwing elements of Netflix's big-budget drama series The Crown into the cauldron, along with a dose of H.P. Lovecraft's horror work. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2018/12/18/chilling-adventures-of-sabrina-renewed-for-parts-3-and-4"] "I think one of the things that's really fun in Part 4 is we play a little bit like a demonic version of The Crown, with a lot of palace intrigue and a lot of jockeying for power between Lucifer and Madam Satan/Lilith and Sabrina," he said. "So that's something we explore. But the power struggle is mainly between Lilith and Lucifer. And that's kind of their big story even from the beginning of the series, this idea of power between the two of them." While Part 4 will focus on these important power plays, Aguirre-Sacasa assured that the new season will continue to borrow ingredients from Lovecraft's writings in a similar vein to Part 3, which included the Old Gods and Eldritch Terrors as part of the narrative. "One of my favourite horror writers is H.P. Lovecraft, and there's a definite H.P. Lovecraft vibe to Part 4,” the showrunner revealed. "And we're taking very, very old primal ideas of horror and fear and unleashing them on Sabrina, on the Spellmans and on Greendale. And Greendale becomes a battleground for this really epic battle between evil and good and horror and sanity and it's huge, it's big."
