I love a good supernatural show. Add some witches in, and I am sold. Yaga, which is a Canadian supernatural horror, has everything a good November watch needs — eerie atmosphere, melancholy, witches, and a bit of sex. It’s created by Canadian playwright and is inspired by the lore of Baba Yaga. In Slavic folklore Baba Yaga is an old crone who eats children. She lives in a forest, and a mortar and pestle are her accompaniments. In this show, Rapp, a private detective, investigates the disappearance of Henry Park, the heir to a commercial fishery. Rapp is played by Noah Reid, who we remember as David’s boyfriend in Schitt’s Creek. And Henry is played by Hudson Williams from Heated Rivalry. There is a mysterious professor who finds bones sexy, and enough erotic love triangles to keep you busy. Who is the witch? Where is the missing boy? And can you believe anything you see or hear? Watch, it’s a treat.
