If you’re a new fan of Hatchefield but haven’t a clue what’s going on or what’s to watch next here’s a guide
First watch The Guy Who Didn’t Like Musicals, you don’t need to watch anything before it and if you like the story as a stand-alone adventure you don’t need to watch anything after it.
If you do want to continue with the series and characters then next you should watch Black Friday. It’s set in an alternate reality where the singing aliens never attacked the town but something more evil did. By no means do you have to understand everything that’s going on, you can just sit back and enjoy the beautiful way it was filmed and the bangers. (Characters from TGWDLM show up and contribute to the plot but it focuses on a new group of people) (I would recommend watching the teaser trailer beforehand just to understand the general plot)
After that you should watch Nightmare Time, they’re a series of short stories that take place in various realities. Due to the pandemic it was filmed over Zoom but despite that it’s actually really well done. There are 6 stories in total and they all focus on different characters. I’d recommend watching them all in order (especially 3 and 4) but if you just want TGWDLM characters or something here’s a list
Episode 1 is about Hidgens and Ted makes an appearance
Episode 2 is about Bill and Alice
Episode 3 is about Paul and Emma
Episode 4 is about Ted
Episode 5 is about Tom (he’s one of the new Black Friday guys)
Episode 6 is about Hannah (Black Friday)
Nightmare Time Season 2 is out and it’s a million times better than NMT1. It features mainly new characters but it’s so much fun and the final episode is one of the best Hatchetfield things so far
