It's time to meet a new set of Liars. Five years after we left Rosewood behind, the HBO Max reboot Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin is finally here. The new series, from Chilling Adventures of Sabrina writers Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and Lindsay Calhoon Bring, has entirely different vibes from the original, with a new mystery, a new small- town setting in Millwood, Pennsylvania, and a new set of high school-aged girls being tormented by a masked figure only known as A.
The new spin-off also has a generational twist. In addition to the Liars' own secrets, their mothers have been keeping something huge hidden since they were Millwood High students themselves. Read on to meet the Liars and the parents who are all wrapped up in A's motives.
