POP’S CHOCK’LIT SHOPPE OF HORRORS: FRESH MEAT (ONE-SHOT)
Pop’s Chock’lit Shoppe has been around for what feels like forever… but how?

From the full creative team that brought you last year’s successful Pop’s Chock’lit Shoppe of Horrors, we learn the nefarious origin of the beloved hometown haunt, with stories filled with shady business deals, carnivorous plants, and the horrors of small business ownership.

TWO BRAND NEW STORIES! First, someone has stolen a copy of Ms. Grundy’s semester final and it’s up to crime podcast host Fran Frazer—along with Betty & Veronica—to find out who took it and why. Then, after ice skating with the gang, Sabrina shares some hot cocoa her aunts made for her with everyone—little does she know it’s actually a potion to help her skate better! What happens when magic ends up in the wrong hands (or, in this case, feet!)?
