Before the chaos at Cold Springs Cold Brews, before the gunfire and the ghosts, there was only a boy on a porch—a watchful eye in the Garden District, learning to see what others missed. But some mysteries aren’t meant to be solved, and some truths refuse to stay buried.
Now, that same curiosity leads to ruin. A friend turns violent, old magic lashes out, and something unseen forces its way into the living. Voices whisper threats from nowhere, and eyes once blind to spirits now see too much.
As the crew struggles to survive, loyalties fracture and strange powers surface. A haunting name lingers on every breath, pulling them toward a past none of them are ready to face.
In the swamps beyond the city, they find a moment’s refuge—just long enough for one miracle, one secret, and one stirring of a almost forgotten friend.
The question isn’t what’s following them anymore.
It’s what’s waking up.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
