Yes, ladies and gentlemen, these are the celebrities that just happened to be in Are You Afraid Of The Dark , one of the spookiest Canadian TV shows out there.
I can’t believe this was a show for children, honestly.
Ryan Gosling
Before he was charming Rachel McAdams in The Notebook , Ryan was on Are You Afraid Of The Dark , trying to save his brother from the depths of hell.
Yup, from hell.
Jay Baruchel
One of Canada’s darlings was obviously on one of its favorite shows! In fact, he was in a bunch of episodes!
He was also in what is considered to be the best episode, “The Tale of Dead Man’s Float.”
Ryan Cooley
Before he was on Degrassi: The Next Generation , he was this creepy little boy. Well, we’ll give him one thing: he definitely has the creepy look down pat.
Seriously, that is creepy.
Vanessa Lengies
This Glee cast member played Vange, a tomboy who often made fun of the character Andy a lot.
She was also the youngest member of the Midnight Society.
JoAnna Garcia Swisher
She was Sam, one of the kids in the Midnight Society.
Maybe the reason she eventually played someone from a story in Once Upon A Time was because she was always telling stories?
Aaron Ashmore
This Smallville star actually had two episodes of Are You Afraid Of The Dark .
He was in both “The Tale of the Thirteenth Floor” and “The Tale of the Lunar Locusts.”
Tia and Tamera Mowry
These famous twins actually had a really cool episode, about a girl who gets bitten by an evil Cameleon at a pet store.
The Cameleon then starts to turn into the girl (this is where the other twin comes into play).
Emily VanCamp
This Captain America: Civil War star was first on Are You Afraid Of The Dark .
In fact, she was in three episodes, an arc that was called “The Tale of the Silver Sight.”
Neve Campbell
Before she was screaming up a storm in… uh… well, Scream , she was hollering her brains out in the Are You Afraid Of The Dark episode “The Tale of the Dangerous Soup”.
Daniel DeSanto
Yes, that’s right, Tucker was actually Gretchen Wiener’s d-bag boyfriend. He was on the show for most of it’s run, as a mainstay in the midnight society.
Where did he go wrong?
Hayden Christensen
The dark lord of the sith was first in Are You Afraid Of The Dark .
He played a kid who liked winter sports who gets caught in a nasty snowstorm. A ghostly nasty snowstorm.
Elisha Cuthbert
Before she was The Girl Next Door , she starred in Are You Afraid Of The Dark as one of the Midnight society.
She also had a cameo in the episode “The Tale of the Night Shift”.
Melissa Joan Hart
The star of Clarissa Explains It All actually first appeared on an episode of Are You Afraid Of The Dark where she played a babysitter looking after some spoiled kid.

Oh, and the house she’s in is haunted.
Gilbert Gottfried
No, this episode features none of Gottfried’s signature dirty comedy, but it does feature him as an evil radio DJ.
He takes none other than Ryan Gosling’s aforementioned little brother.
