• Witches all over the world are planning on casting a spell to bind Donald Trump to anyone who would try to help him tomorrow night. To join in, you need: “an unflattering picture of Trump, a Tower tarot card, a bit of an orange candle, a pin or small nail, small bowls of both water and salt, a feather, matches, and an ashtray.” Light as a feather, stiff as a board to the head.

• Speaking of magical things: AMC confirmed that American Gods would premiere on April 30th. They also shared an excellent promotional poster for you to check out. (via Polygon)

• Netflix announced earlier this month that they’re developing a live-action series based on Castlevania, the classic video game. Today they released a promotional poster that’s about as spooky as you’d expect from something like this. (via Polygon)
• Speaking of promotional materials, a full four-minute prologue for Alien: Covenant dropped on YouTube today, and if you’re at all interested in checking out the upcoming movie, you should take a look. It’s everything you’d expect from an Alien movie. (via Pajiba)
