Coven Academy Launches on Disney+ and Freeform with 21 Short-Form Episodes
Coven Academy, a supernatural teen drama created by Tim Federle, premiered on Freeform and Disney+ on October 1, 2026. The series follows Briar Roberts, a grieving teen who discovers she is a witch at Crescent Veil Academy in New Orleans. The show features a 21-episode season with variable runtimes between 10 and 25 minutes, a format that critics noted disrupts pacing but enhances cliffhangers. The narrative centers on Briar’s bond with two other witches, Sasha and Tegan, as they investigate her mother’s unsolved murder and navigate a love triangle involving a warlock and a vampire.
