It screenwriter Gary Dauberman is on board for the Paramount Players production. 

Paramount Players, a subsidiary of matriarch Paramount Pictures, is bringing a beloved '90s anthology series to the big screen.

Originally aired on nostalgic Nickelodeon, Are You Afraid of the Dark followed a group of kids known as the Midnight Society, who told fairy tales and urban legends around a campfire, popularly throwing their midnight dust, aka gun powder, as a regular rite of passage. It ran throughout the early to late '90s.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, screenwriter Gary Dauberman will write the script, and Matt Kaplan will produce the highly-anticipated adaptation.
