CHILLING ADVENTURES PRESENTS… POP'S CHOCK'LIT SHOPPE OF HORRORS (ONE-SHOT)
Pop Tate is the glue holding Riverdale together, whether everyone realizes or not. His Chock'lit Shoppe is the beating heart of the city, where everyone can stop in for a delicious bite and some safe haven—even the worst sorts. And not just the run-of-the-mill rapscallions who recently broke the jukebox. When a young Riverdale couple (Nick St. Clair and Sherry Thyme) attempt to dine and dash on the humble small business owner, they quickly discover the fryer grease isn't the only heart-stopping thing about the Chock'lit Shoppe. From tales of mystery meat to the unnatural visitors that dine late at night, this anthology tells stories about the horrors that happen at Riverdale's beloved malt shop—and how Pop Tate is at the center of it all, the most powerful figure in Riverdale providing haven to all sorts of terrors and underhanded villainy.

TWO BRAND NEW STORIES! First, in "The Foxy New Kid," Kevin asks Veronica to help him out with an important request. The new kid—Shinji—is really cool but also mysterious. He can't get a read on him. But when the two of them decide to just confront him, he's nowhere to be found. Instead, they get ambushed by Ghost Fox. Why are they after Shinji? Who hired them? What's their scheme? Then, in "Real Horse Power," Betty and Veronica are on Lodge's ranch. The newly hired manager, Nevada Jones, is a bit much—does Mr. Jones really need to wear the mask? But when the horses spook and stampede, he's immediately chasing them down. Betty joins the chase and helps to lasso the wild stallions!
