Chilling Adventures of Sabrina Season 1 Episode 7 Recap

It’s Thanksgiving on Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. For the coven, it’s time for the Feast of Feasts, the holiday commemorating the self-sacrifice of Freya, a young woman who died in order for the Greendale coven to live the winter the witches were driven out of town. Each year, 14 witch families choose 1 member to represent the family in the lottery. One witch is selected to be the queen of the coven for three days, at the end of which the witch is killed and the rest of the coven feasts upon her flesh.

The Spellmans are chosen to participate this year. With Hilda excommunicated, Zelda says that she will represent the family in the lottery. Sabrina objects to the ritual and takes her aunt’s place in the lottery, hoping that she will be selected and that her aunt will raise objection. Instead, Prudence is selected as the queen and Sabrina the handmaiden, who has to attend to the queen’s every desire during the three days leading up to the feast.
