'Light as a Feather': How a story posted online became the first-of-its-kind Hulu TV series

Hulu's 'Light as a Feather' premiers tomorrow so here's all you need to know about how Zoe Aarsen's online story became a new TV phenomenon
PUBLISHED OCT 11, 2018

Hulu's latest thriller 'Light as a Feather' that narrates the story of five teen girls who play an innocent game only to find out that they are dying in the same way that the game predicted premieres on Friday.

The TV series is actually based off a Wattpad story published in 2013 and here is how the story published in an online platform found its way to Hulu. Author Zoe Aarsen wrote a paranormal story a few years ago titled 'Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board,' and shared it on Wattpad. Five years down the line, we have a TV series featuring Liana Liberato (McKenna), Haley Ramm (Violet), Ajiona Alexus (Candace), Brianne Tju (Alex), Peyton List (Olivia), Dylan Sprayberry (Henry), Jordan Rodrigues (Trey) and Brent Rivera (Issac).
