"Riverdale" is taking an even darker turn.
As the hit CW show returns for its second season Wednesday with more drama and even more episodes, we've compiled a list of some of the details that have emerged over the past few months. While everyone involved with the show has been fairly mum on spoilers, casting news and behind-the-scenes photos have given us a sneak peek at what to expect.
Here's what to know about the show's second season:
There are three new Serpents, most notably Toni Topaz.

Vanessa Morgan, known for appearing on "The Shannara Chronicles," is playing Topaz, a bisexual character from the comic books.
During San Diego Comic-Con "Riverdale" Creator and Showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa described her as "Jughead's guide into the Serpent world."
She is joined by Jordan Connor as Sweet Pea and Drew Ray Tanner as Fangs Fogarty.
Bughead's relationship will be strained.
Toni Topaz's introduction may harm Betty and Jughead's relationship, a.k.a. Bughead.
Aguirre-Sacasa told audiences at Comic-Con, "We jokingly say that she's got a lot of the same interests as Jughead, so it's almost like she's a female Jughead. She's trouble. I think she's trouble, getting Jughead into this gang. And I think she might be trouble for Bughead."
We'll get to meet Betty's brother, Chic.
