Riverdale’s Madchen Amick and Lili Reinhart explained the interesting scene that closed the season 3 premiere. Spoilers are ahead.

Many people who tuned into the season 3 premiere of Riverdale probably have some questions about that final scene.

Betty Cooper watched as her mother and another woman held babies in the air, over fire, dropped them and watched them levitate. This caused Betty to freak out and seemingly have a panic attack over what she just witnessed.

I was among a group of journalists who got to speak with Madchen Amick (Alice Cooper) and Lili Reinhart (Betty Cooper) at New York Comic Con. During a Riverdale press session on Oct. 7, the two actresses each gave their take on that crazy moment.

“I would kind of explain the mystery in Riverdale as an epidemic. Something that’s involving the whole town, especially the kids. It’s very mysterious. No one really knows where it’s coming from, what’s going on, who’s causing it. It’s very up in the air.

I think Betty is kind of freaked out by what happened, but I think it makes her more suspicious of the Farm. Because she’s like ‘now that my mom is with the Farm all these weird things are happening. The Farm has relocated to Riverdale, so obviously the Farm has something to do with this epidemic that’s happening. Something’s wrong with this thing’. I’ve got to tell them to f**k off,” Lili said

Madchen Amick kept things somewhat close to her chest. “That’s the question. How much is real? How much is twisted? Could it be magical or supernatural? Don’t know! You’ll have to find out”, Madchen said. It turns out that Madchen is just as in the dark as the viewers are. “To be honest, some of it has been revealed but there’s still a question even now halfway through the season. So there’s there’s an open-ended reasoning behind that”, she explained.

From what Madchen said, it seems like this mystery may be a lingering one throughout the season. What are your theories? Is Riverdale going supernatural this year? Let us know what you think the in the comment section. Check out Riverdale every Wednesday on the CW.
