dailyloe.com – Netflix’s thriller ‘Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen’ concluded with a bloody finale tied to a family curse. Creator Haley Z. Boston told The Hollywood Reporter the show is ultimately a hopeful story. It follows bride Rachel, played by Camila Morrone, who must marry her soulmate or die.

The curse dictates that family members must marry their true soulmate. Failure results in violent death by bleeding. Boston described the narrative as a breakup story from an emotional standpoint.

She was inspired by her own fear of marrying the wrong person. Boston weighed her romantic future against her parents’ 40-year marriage. This personal conflict formed the show’s core premise.

The creator said stopping the curse requires genuine belief. One must believe their partner is their soulmate. She acknowledged this is easier said than done.

Boston initially conceived the show without explicit curse rules. Changes were made to create binge-worthy television. The story represents doubt with belief as its antidote.

The Duffer Brothers, creators of Stranger Things, executive produced the series. They were attracted to Boston’s unique wedding-gone-wrong concept. This marked Boston’s first time as a series creator.

The finale explores whether Rachel can find true belief. Her journey confronts the impossible standards set by lasting love. The show questions the nature of soulmates and commitment.[]
