Creative Team & Soundtrack Style

• Composers: Danny Elfman and Chris Bacon reunite for Wednesday Season 2, building on their Season 1 palette with new motifs that lean into darker, tension-filled arrangements.
• Music Supervision: Netflix’s in-house team curated classical interludes featuring Mozart and Prokofiev, alongside 1980s goth rock, so the soundtrack reflects Nevermore’s blend of old-world academia and modern teen angst.
• Orchestration & Tone: Strings and choir textures underscore horror moments, while occasional pop or rock inserts punctuate moments of levity, like flashbacks or dance sequences.
