Ambrose Spellman

Ambrose Spellman is a main character on Netflix's Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. He is portrayed by Chance Perdomo.

He is a warlock that resides in the town of Greendale, located on the opposite side of the Sweetwater River from Riverdale. Due to a binding spell, he had been trapped in Spellman Mortuary for 75 years until being released by Father Blackwood.

Character Description
''Ambrose is Sabrina's "cousin" and a necromancer. He is witty, puckish, pan-sexual—and loves being a witch. Trapped in the funeral home due to a binding spell, Ambrose lives in the mortuary's attic and acts as one of Sabrina's partners in crime''

''Ambrose Spellman, Sabrina’s warlock cousin from England. Placed under house arrest by the Witches Council, Ambrose is forbidden from leaving the funeral home where he lives with the Spellman women. Witty, puckish and pan-sexual, he is one of Sabrina’s partners in crime, always up for mischief.''

Early Life
When Ambrose was a young warlock, his father was killed by witch hunters. As the sole survivor, he was raised by his Aunt Hilda. Ambrose is an old warlock who moved from university to university seeking a father figure after the witch hunters killed his father. At the age of seventeen, Ambrose published his first poetry collection. He also painted with the Surrealists and taught stage magic to Harry Houdini himself. In the late 19th century, Ambrose met a young Aleister Crowley and became one of his followers. Fascinated by Crowley's revolutionary and controversial ideas, Ambrose and unknown accomplices attempted to blow up the Vatican. Ambrose was the only witch to be arrested among all the culprits. Although he was offered incolumity in exchange for the names of his accomplices, Ambrose did not betray the cause and for that reason was confined to the Spellman Mortuary with a binding spell. Since then, he began working as a mortician there, coping his depression and loneliness with sarcasm, jokes and family affection.

NOTE:CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION.

A Witch in the Attic
On the morning of October 28th at the breakfast table, Ambrose is reading a book while Zelda reads the newspaper and Hilda is cooking. The family is soon joined by Sabrina who reveals that she didn't sleep well due to excitement for her upcoming 16th birthday and that a bat broke her window last night. Ambrose is immediately interested and asks if Sabrina wants him to bring him back. But Zelda immediately says that they will not need his necromancy. Sabrina, then, asks if she can bury it in the garden and Hilda replies that she can bury it in the Pet Cemetery, near the sundial, before giving her niece a herbal concoction in a jar. To purify her body before the Dark Baptism, the aunts say. Ambrose suggests Sabrina not to drink it while pretending to cough, but Zelda silences him and asks Sabrina to pick up a familiar from the register sent by the Council. Sabrina, however, has already decided on summoning her own familiar in an unusual way by using a spell from the Demonomicon.

At the cemetery, Ambrose asks Sabrina for a penny dreadful for her thoughts. Ambrose, in fact, has noticed that something is wrong with his cousin. Ambrose asks if she is having doubts about her upcoming Dark Baptism. Sabrina replies that she is not sure, but Ambrose reassures her by telling her that he too was tense at the time of his initiation. Therefore, he wants to know what she said to her mortal friends; if she is still determined to use the "studying at a posh boarding school in Connecticut" lie. But Sabrina hasn't told her friends that she is leaving yet. She's waiting for the right time. Ambrose says that there will never be a right time and that after the Dark Baptism, Sabrina will finally feel that she belongs and will no longer feel uncomfortable with her dual nature. Sabrina is sad and asks her cousin if you can miss something before you even lose it. Ambrose nods, saying that he has been trapped in the Spellman Mortuary ground for the last 75 years. He constantly misses everything. Ambrose then enters the house, leaving Sabrina to her thoughts.

On the porch of Spellman Mortuary, Ambrose is surfing the net when Sabrina returns from school. The girl is visibly sad and Ambrose tries to comfort her. Sabrina reveals that she told Harvey that she is a witch, but forced him to forget with a spell because it was too horrible to bear. Ambrose is worried about her cousin, but he does not know how to help her. Sabrina says that she will find a way. However, she asks Ambrose to help her with a spell later, midnight-ish. Ambrose is happy to help her, appreciating the spooky witching hour chosen for spell casting.

In the attic, Sabrina and Ambrose decide how to hex Principal Hawthorne. Ambrose suggests to kill him, but she just wants to give him a good scare and adds that the principal is terrified of spiders. Ambrose replies that it will be easy since Hilda's familiars are spiders. The two witches gather the glass cages with the spiders and Ambrose puts Hawthorne's photo that Sabrina ripped from a yearbook in one of the cages, among the spiders. Ambrose and Sabrina begin chanting the spell, conjuring a disturbing vision of spiders crawling all over the body and the room of Principal Hawthorne, causing him to have a shock.

The next morning, Ambrose is reading his book while the Spellman women have breakfast. Sabrina found her familiar the night before, a black cat named Salem. Zelda does not find the name to be appropriate, but Sabrina replies that he named himself like that. Sabrina, then, asks if her Dark Baptism can be postponed because of the club she founded at school, creating a little family drama that immediately catches Ambrose's attention, especially when Aunt Zelda asks Sabrina if the reason is that she and Harvey had sex. Sabrina is shocked by the question and denies, adding that she has reservations about remaining a virgin for the Dark Lord. After all, it's her own body, and she does not want to be part of the Church of Night because of what they did to her parents, angering Zelda even more.



Outside on the porch, Ambrose tries to comfort Sabrina after the fight with Aunt Zelda. He asks if Sabrina enjoyed the spell they have cast on Hawthorne because the euphoria and the power she tasted are nothing if she won't be baptized. Sabrina is still undecided. Ambrose suggests finding a "Malum Malus"; according to whether the translator is a man or a woman, it is the apple of evil or the fruit of knowledge, respectively. Ambrose tells Sabrina to go to an orchard and find the oldest tree to pick an apple from its branch. With a bite, she can have a glimpse of the future.

Later in the embalming room, Ambrose is working on a recently deceased young man named Connor Kemper. While fixing the corpse, he notices a sign on the corpse's right arm and immediately calls Hilda and Zelda. Ambrose suspects that the sign is a Witch's Mark because it doesn't bleed when that spot of skin is pierced by a needle. Zelda is not convinced, but both Hilda and Ambrose are pretty sure the dead man was a witch. They decide that they must report to the Council, and Hilda suggests summoning the person closest to the Dark Lord.

In the evening, Ambrose is standing by the fireplace when Sabrina returns home and her aunts present the young witch to Father Blackwood, the High Priest of the Church of Night.



Ambrose silently listens to Father Blackwood lecturing Sabrina on the Dark Baptism and the underlying concepts of their religion. Before the High Priest leaves, however, Ambrose asks his opinion about the corpse of Connor Kemper in the embalming room. Father Blackwood agrees that it is indeed a Witch's Mark and inquires on the deceased one's parents. Hilda and Zelda reply that he was adopted by two mortals and Father Blackwood takes the opportunity to scare Sabrina about what happens to wayward witches.



At the breakfast table, Ambrose congratulates Harvey on his drawings and the two boys exchange opinions about their love for comics and graphic novels. Ambrose is very much into Alan Moore, Neil Gaiman and Grant Morrison. Harvey invites Sabrina to the bowling for the evening after her birthday, and Ambrose silently watches Zelda giving Harvey a death stare.



At the Mortuary, Ambrose receives a visit from Mr. and Mrs. Kemper to show them Connor in his coffin. Mrs. Kemper is touched by the care with which Ambrose fixed him, and Ambrose invites them for tea. While pouring tea, Ambrose asks if there have been any news in the investigation. Mr. Kemper says the police know nothing, and they didn't even find out why Connor was in that park in the first place. Ambrose inquires if they have to wait for a large crowd during the wake, but Mrs. Kemper replies that Connor didn't have many friends other than the iguana with whom he used to have conversations. She could swear that sometimes it seemed to her as if Connor expected the iguana to answer. Ambrose jumps to the conclusion that it is Connor's familiar.

Accompanying the Kemper outside, Ambrose watches them leave while Aunt Zelda comes back from the cemetery with a shovel. Zelda reminds Ambrose that they should not meddle in mortals affairs but Ambrose replies that Connor was not a mortal. Ambrose then asks about Hilda, and Zelda replies that she annoyed her, so she killed Hilda and buried her in the yard.

At breakfast, Zelda informs Sabrina that she has called the school to say that she will be absent and Sabrina complains that she has not been able to say goodbye to her friends. Ambrose intrudes in the conversion, wondering if Sabrina will use the excuse of having to move to a "posh boarding school in Connecticut". Zelda suggests sending them a postcard. Since Zelda and Hilda are busy with the preparations of the Dark Baptism, Zelda orders Ambrose to keep an eye on Sabrina.



In the living room, Ambrose is lying on a sofa reading tarot while Sabrina asks him questions about why witches and mortals cannot be together. Sabrina claims that he and the aunts always talk with mortals, but Ambrose points out that although they have conversations with mortals, they have no real connection or relationship with them since the coven forbids it. Sabrina jokingly asks if the coven will cast a spell on her should she go to the mall with Harvey, but Ambrose explains that after the Baptism, it will be as if a veil falls between her and the mortal world. And little by little, she will detach from the mortal realm altogether. Otherwise, the suffering would be too much because the mortal world will become trivial. People she loves will grow old and die while she is still young. Ambrose advises her to forget about the mortals and think about what's ahead. Sabrina leaves the room in tears, saying that she will go to the party with Harvey for one last night with her friends.



Sometime later, Harvey shows up at the Spellman door dressed as a miner. Ambrose teases him, saying that Harvey is dressed as his future. He then yells Sabrina's name from downstairs. Harvey seems sad about what Ambrose just said and tries to justify his costume by saying he took it from his brother Tommy, so the warlock tells him he was only joking. Harvey invites him to join them, but Ambrose refuses, saying that if he has to risk being banished to the Nether Realm, it must be for something other than a high school masquerade. Harvey does not grasp the reference, and the attention of both is caught by Sabrina on top of the stairs. She is wearing her mother's wedding dress.



In the middle of the night, Ambrose rushes out of the house when he hears Sabrina screaming his name. A horde of witches is behind her with the intention of forcing Sabrina to sign the Book of the Beast. Ambrose steps in, lying to the High Priest when he threatens to send the Weird Sisters after Sabrina. Ambrose, in fact, says that the house is surrounded by a magical protective circle that can only be surpassed by Spellman witches. All the other witches would be engulfed by fire in the attempt. The plan works and the witches leave.

The following day, the tension at the Spellman's house is so tight that it can be cut. Zelda is extremely disappointed and angry with Sabrina for the humiliation that the family suffered from the whole Coven due to Sabrina's behavior. Ambrose witnesses another quarrel between Zelda and Sabrina, who says she saw her parents in the woods and that they told her to escape during the Baptism. Ambrose asks if it was like a spectral apparition, but Sabrina is not sure.

A Funeral Affair
In the morning, Ambrose finds Connor's iguana atop his casket. Once in the kitchen, he asks Zelda and Hilda if there's a way to make another witch's familiar talk. Zelda replies that he is not allowed to have a familiar, but Ambrose would rather be able to make it talk to find out something about Connor's murder. Zelda says it is impossible because of the deep connection between the witch and familiar. It will soon die of agony for the loss of its master, so Zelda offers to kill it on the spot, suggesting that Hilda could fashion it into a purse. Ambrose refuses and says that he'll try to bribe it with food to see if that works and goes upstairs.

In the evening, Ambrose is sitting on the kitchen counter while Zelda scolds Sabrina. Since she ran away from her Dark Baptism, they received an Infernal Summoning and Sabrina will have to undergo a trial in which the whole family will be investigated by the Court. Sabrina replies that she saw the Dark Lord at school when he possessed Principal Hawthorne and threatened her. Now Zelda is even more worried about the whole situation. Sabrina is beside herself and can not understand why all of them must stand trial before the court. Ambrose explains that, according to Witch-Law, a witch is guilty until proven otherwise.

In the attic, Sabrina and Ambrose try to figure out a loophole. Sabrina has not promised anything to the Dark Lord and has no intention of being condemned by the Church of Night. Ambrose asks if she has ever heard of a man named Daniel Webster, a lawyer and occultist who's specialized in Witch-Law. Despite being a mortal, he is said to have been able to defeat the Devil once. Sabrina is lucky because Webster lives in Greendale and Ambrose gives Sabrina the lawyer's card, making it appear out of nowhere with a quick movement of his hand.

At Connor's funeral, Ambrose meets Luke. Luke used to date Connor and tells Ambrose how he's going to miss Connor and the lizard he used to take it everywhere with him. Ambrose tells Luke that he has Connor's iguana upstairs in his room if he'd like to go say hi. Luke declines but says maybe some other time.

Later, Ambrose is smoking and reading in his room when he hears a loud knocking coming from his window. He goes to open it but Luke appears in his room and scares him. Ambrose asks how Luke got into his room and Luke says that he was invited. Ambrose jumps to the conclusion that he's a vampire but Luke corrects him and tells him that he's a warlock just like him and Connor. Luke approaches Ambrose and the two of them begin to kiss before falling onto Ambrose's bed. The next morning, Ambrose finds that Luke has disappeared but has left his number carved into the ceiling above. He also notices that Connor's iguana has died, abruptly erasing the smile from his face.

In the evening, the family and Mr. Webster are in the kitchen to discuss the legal steps to be taken for Sabrina's trial. Since Sabrina has discovered that she does not have a Witch's Mark on her body, she will accept to be examined. Zelda is worried, but Sabrina does not want to hear reasons. Her friends at Baxter High are facing worse, and she is willing to win the legal battle, without tricks or deals. And she will make sure that Zelda and Hilda have their powers and their eternal youth back. When Hilda leaves the room, Ambrose helps her out. In Sabrina's bedroom, Ambrose watches as Sabrina begins to pack for her three-day stay over at the Academy of Unseen Arts. He tries to console her by telling her about all the new people she's going to meet, witches and hot warlocks from all over the world. Sabrina says that her only agenda is to learn how to conjure, bind, and banish the Dark Lord.



The next day, Ambrose is in the embalming room when he receives a phone call from Luke, asking him out. Back in the kitchen for a snack, he tells Hilda about Luke and how he invited him out on a date. Ambrose really wants to go since he's bored sick of being bound to the house and asks Hilda if she'll help him astral projecting. At first, Hilda refuses because it's too dangerous but after Zelda leaves to go have dinner with the High Priest, Father Blackwood and boasts of this invitation with her sister, emphasizing on Hilda's excommunication, Hilda decides to do it.



In the embalming room, Hilda places candles around Ambrose while he lies atop a surgical table. Ambrose is given 20 minutes to astral project. He starts to chant the spell and his astral body reaches Dr. Cerberus' bookstore where he meets with Luke.



Having already slept together, Luke goes straight to the point and want to know more about Ambrose, who's starting to get upset about the Psychopomps already gathering outside the window to collect his spirit. The conversation isn't really going anywhere until Ambrose revels the reason why he was put under arrest: in the past, he tried to blow up the Vatican. Luke is impressed but the date is abruptly ended when Zelda summons back Ambrose's spirit back into his body.



Coming back is quite painful and Ambrose needs some time to adjust to it, feeling a bit disoriented by the astral projection's side effects, possibly due to him staying projected over 20 minutes. Zelda is really upset by their behavior, especially because Ambrose is violating Witch Law by leaving the Spellman Mortuary.

On her last day at the Academy, Sabrina telephones home to ask her aunts' help to deal with some ghosts and Ambrose eavesdrops the conversation in the sitting room.

A Nightmare on Decarlo Lane


Ambrose is in the embalming room entertaining himself with an adult magazine when Sabrina's screams rush him upstairs. There, the Spellmans are confronted by Batibat, a Sleep Demon that Sabrina inadvertently released from Edward's Acheron Configuration. Zelda takes the lead and the witches gather their magic to seal the house with a spell so that the demon can't escape and cause trouble outside. While the monster threatens their lives, Zelda traps it into an urn firmly chanting a spell.



In the kitchen, Hilda pours tea as they discuss the reasons why Sabrina's father trapped the demon in the enchanted box in the first place. The aunts recalls he suffered a terrible insomnia, and the reason was most likely due to Batibat.



Later, the family goes to sleep unaware of the danger caused by the demon. Ambrose dreams of having to do his own autopsy. He gets called upstairs by Hilda because Father Blackwood has come to see him. As he makes his way upstairs, he runs into Ms. Wardwell who tells him that she's in the wrong nightmare. Father Blackwood tells Ambrose that the hex that keeps him in the house has been broken and that he's finally free. He's given a bag of money and told that a car outside waits for him. As he leaves, Batibat appears and starts to stab him. He wakes up as the body on the slab and watches as he does the autopsy on himself. Batibat asks him for the spell to unlock the house but Ambrose says no. It says that it'll be back because it believes that either Ambrose or Hilda will break first.

Ambrose is still trapped in his own nightmare when Sabrina tries to wake him up. But now that he's aware of being trapped in his nightmares by the demon, Ambrose is able to help his cousin.



Ambrose calls for Batibat and distracts her so that Sabrina can successfully banish it with a spell. The others wake up and go to check on Sabrina. This time they seal the demon in a jar. Ambrose, Zelda, and Hilda are all on edge because Sabrina walked through their dreams. Ambrose is particularly distraught by his depression caused by the spell that traps him inside the house. Sabrina tells them that she hardly remembers any of it.

Aiding an Exorsism
Later that night, Sabrina tells Ambrose that her teacher Mary Wardwell is a witfch who has been spying on them. Ambrose tries to convince Sabrina to give "Ms. Wardwell" the benefit of the doubt but she says no and that she's going to clean all the mirrors so that "Ms. Wardwell" can't spy on them anymore. The next day, Sabrina tells Ambrose that her friend's ucle Jesse Putham is possessed by a demon. Sabrina tries to convince Ambrose into standing guard over her body while she astral projects to Susie's house to see Uncle Jesse. He says no but she does it anyway. Salem, who was watching over Sabrina's body, goes and grabs Ambrose, who pulls her back into her true form. She tells Ambrose what happened and gives him the demon's name. After a few minutes, Ambrose laughs because his "name" is actually "ice cream" spelled backwards, revealing that the demon lied to her. Ambrose asks Sabrina if there is anything else that she knows about him. She tells him that he said he was set free from the mines by Jesse. This triggers something in her mind as she leaves and goes to see Harvey. When she gets back, Sabrina reveals that the demon is Apothos. Later, Sabrina arrives home to find "Ms. Wardwell" sitting between Zelda and Hilda. Ms Wardwell tells Sabrina she came because she fears she's putting herself in danger. Sabrina asks her if her aunts know what she is. Ms Wardwell tells Sabrina she's told them everything. Zelda adds that she wishes she could say she and Hilda were surprised but they knew their brother well enough to know this is exactly something Edward would have done though she still finds it insulting that her brother wouldn't think they were up to the task of protecting his daughter themselves. Sabrina tells them that she will go to the Catholic Church and ask for help for her friends. "Ms. Wardwell" offers to help Sabrina with the exorcism by using one of Edward's spells that is a Church of Darkness counterpart to the Catholic exorsism. Hilda decides to go along as well and the three of them leave leaving Zelda behind. Zelda paces back and forth worried about Sabrina. Ambrose tells her to go help them so that Sabrina doesn't get hurt. Sometime after Zelda goes after them, Father Blackwood arrives with knowledge about the exorsism. When they return, he threatens to excommunicate them all for having performed an exorcism. Zelda saves the day by telling him the test results of the urine sample she took from Constance: He's having twins. Later, Ambrose begins a relationship with Luke.

The Feast of Feasts
When the Feast of Feasts approches, he and his aunts explain to Sabrina that the Feast of Feats is one of the coven's holiest holidays and celebrates the sacrifice of one witch: Freija. She had killed herself so that the coven would have food until spring. Zelda tells her that fourteen witches families have been selected and each must choose someone to represent them. Those representatives will have to draw straw and see who will be deemed Queen. Whoever is Queen will be the main course for the Feast of Feasts. Zelda tells her that only she and Sabrina can participate and since Hilda has been excommunicated, Zelda will be the representative. Sabrina is against the whole idea and tries to get Hilda and Ambrose to back her up. She doesn't want to lose any more Spellmans. Zelda tells her that she and Hilda have participated many times, but never deemed the Queen. She believes they will be rejected again this year.after Prudence is chosen to be Queen, Prudence arrives with a duffle bag. Ambrose is clearly smitten with her. Later, Sabrina heads up to Ambrose's room and finds Prudence, Ambrose, Luke, Dorcas, Agatha, and Nick having sex. Nick invites Sabrina to join them but Sabrina says no and leaves. When Father Blackwood and his wife arrive,

Sabrina welcomes Father Blackwood and Lady Blackwood into the house. They sit down with the Weird sisters, Zelda, and Sabrina to have dinner. Hilda is in the kitchen making dessert. Ms. Wardwell is having a glass of wine when the doorbell rings. It's the pizza guy with her pizza. She tells him to bring it inside and closes the door behind him. Sabrina brings out dessert in which Hilda has added a truth potion. After everyone has a slice, Sabrina asks Father Blackwood why he reinstated the Feast of Feasts. He says that the Dark Lord showed him a revelation and that he was commanded to return to the old ways. Sabrina tells Prudence that she hopes she enjoyed her last supper. Everyone around the table tells Prudence that they're going to miss her--except Lady Blackwood. Lady Blackwood reveals that she enchanted the box to choose Prudence as queen. She says she did it because the Weird Sisters are Father Blackwood's bastards and that makes them a threat to her children. Prudence asks Father Blackwood if he is her father and what happened to her mother. He reveals that he is her father and that her mother threw herself into the river after he refused to marry her. Agatha and Dorcas ask if they are also his children and he says no: They are just orphans. Prudence admits that Sabrina was right. Father Blackwood says that they must summon the coven and draw for another queen. Sabrina suggests that they could just not have the Feast of Feasts. Prudence asks if she can wear her beautiful dress and sit on the throne of skulls. Later, Hilda tells Luke and Ambrose that Connor's parents committed suicide and are being brought to the mortuary.

Being recuited by Father Blackwood
Sabrina is watching a movie when Ambrose walks in. He asks her what her plans are for the evening. Sabrina tells him that after Harvey's shift in the mines they're going to go watch a movie. Ambrose tells Sabrina that Luke has a connection with the High Priest and that he's going to speak to him on his behalf. Zelda comes storming in looking for Hilda but Sabrina reminds her that she's working at Dr. Cerebus bookstore. The phone rings and Zelda gets a call telling her that there has been an accident in the mines. Sabrina quickly gets up and heads to the mines. The next morning, Sabrina arrives back at the mortuary at the same time Hilda does. Zelda tells them both to come inside. They sit at the kitchen table as Ambrose tells them that he astral projected into the mines and found no survivors. Sabrina wants to tell Harvey but Zelda says that they can't interfere or else bad things will happen. Zelda explains that the laws of the Churches of Darkness states that the natural order must be preserved and that they can't reveal themselves to mortals. As such, they must be like Cassandra. Ambrose asks if she was close to Tommy but Sabrina says that she only met him a few times. She starts to cry because she knows that Harvey is going to be devastated. At the Funeral, Roz sings at the funeral before Hilda tells Harvey that it's his turn to speak. Harvey goes up to the podium but has trouble speaking so Sabrina casts a spell to make him more confident. He says a few words about Tommy before he sits down again with Sabrina. Next up is Mr. Kinkle. He talks about how Tommy loved the mines but Harvey interrupts him and tells him that Tommy hated the mines. They start to argue and things begin to get physical. They knock over the empty casket and Tommy's helet lands on the ground. Harvey runs off with Sabrina not far behind him. After the funeral, Father Blackwood arrives at the Spellman Mortuary to see Ambrose because Luke spoke to him about him. Blackwood has read Ambrosie's dossier and discovered how he even taught stage magic to Harry Houdini. Blackwood asks Ambrose how he fell into a group that wanted to blow up the Vatican. Ambrose says that it's because he was searching for a father figure and he finally found one with their leader: A young Crowley. When he was arrested, he was told that he'd get immunity if he gave up the names of the others involved. He couldn't make himself do it. Blackwood tells him that if Ambrose tells him the names that he'll set him free. Blackwood tells him he'll return for his answer and leaves. The following night, Ambrose comes out of the house and discovers that Sabrina has used Necromancy to perform a Resurrection. He reprimands her for using this type of magic. Sabrina is stubborn and says that what's the point of being a witch if she can't help the ones she loves. Ambrose tells her that she crossed a line this time. Suddenly, Agatha's hand shoots up through the dirt just as Sabrina planned. Sabrina says as much but Ambrose tells her that those are infamous last words as he walks away. The next day, Blackwood visits Ambrose and asks what he's decided. Ambrose says that he can't give up his fellow co-conspirators. Blackwood says that he's glad to hear it and offers him the chance to work at the Academy as a sort of community service. Later, Sabrina returns homes where she finds Ambrose sitting on the porch and whistling. He asks about Tommy and she tells him that it's been over 13 hours and nothing has happened. Ambrose tells her that the soul returns to the body and gets upset that Sabrina doesn't even know the basics about Necromancy. Sabrina realizes that Tommy is in the mines.

Sabrina's Botched Ressurection
Later, Ambrose models his outfit for his first day at the Academy of Unseen Arts. Hilda asks him to get Zelda and Sabrina because the stew is ready. Sabrina is at Harvey's and Zelda...well, Ambrose doesn't know where Zelda is. When she gets back, Sabrina confides in Ambrose and tells him that the spell worked. Ambrose still thinks that they should tell the Aunties about what Sabrina did. Sabrina isn't worried about them because by the time they do find out they won't be able to undo anything. The next day, Hilda gets a call at the Mortuary telling her that the bodies of the miners have been found. Sabrina and Ambrose share a look. Zelda asks Sabrina how Harvey is. Sabrina says that Harvey is doing fine. Zelda says that she'll be here to accept the bodies and Ambrose says that he'll handle them after he returns from the Academy. Zelda informs them that she'll be at the Academy later too. Zelda tells them that good things are coming. That she can feel it in her bones. Ambrose just gives Sabrina another look. At the Academy, Father Blackwood gives Ambrose a familiar named Leviathan. He welcomes him to the academy and leaves both him and Luke in his office. Luke and Ambrose begin to make out and undress when Dorcas, Prudence, and Nick walk into the room. They are looking for Blackwood but ask Ambrose for help. He tells them that he's no expert on the Cain pit but knows someone who is. Ambrose calls Hilda and tells her about Agatha. Hilda arrives at the Academy and looks Agatha over. She tells them that Agatha came back too soon and that this illness will pass. She gives them instructions on how to take care of Agatha and leaves with Ambrose in tow. Ambrose questions what she prescribed for the girl and Hilda says that that's just to keep them busy and that Agatha shouldn't be alive and that the Earth is owed a soul it means to collect. She asks Ambrose what Agatha was doing in the Cain pit in the first place.Ambrose examines the corpses and discovers that Tommy has been eating them. When Zelda finds out about the resurrection, Ambrose assures her he didn't give Sabrina the spell which Sabrina confirms. Sabrina later comes back and reveals Harvey broke up with her.

The Greendale 13's attack
Sometime later,  Ambrose and Luke are in the woods when they stumble upon a witches circle. They're performing a summoning spell. Suddenly, they disappear. Ambrose goes to investigate and finds a doll among the ashes of their fire pit. As he turns to leave he gets grabbed by a witch who tells him to take back a warning to the Church of Night.Ambrose and Luke storm into the church. He tells them that it's not the Dark Lord but the Greendale Thirteen. That tomorrow night, during the witching hour, they will release their Crimson Avenger and it will go forth and kill every firstborn in Greendale. Father Blackwood tells them not to worry that they'll just hide at the Academy since it's magically protected. Sabrina worries about the mortals but Father Blackwood tells her to let them go to their false god. He reminds everyone that they have to be at the Academy at midnight or else. after the attack, Ambrose discovers that Sabrina has taken her Dark Baptism and become a full-fledged witch.

The Winter Solstice
As the Solsice approches, Ambrose asks Sabrina about her moodiness. Sabrina says she has kept away from her friends since signing the Book of the Beast to give them some space. Ambrose thinks that she should spend more time with them to reassure them that she is still their friend. Sabrina says that she wishes that she could chat with her mother for advice. She wants to ask her mother how she reacted when her father revealed that he was a warlock. Sabrina confides that she saw her mother in the Limbo. Ambrose thinks that Diane must have some unfinished business keeping her in that realm. Sabrina proposes having a séance with her mother since Solstice is the time when the veil between the living and the dead is weakest. Ambrose is uncomfortable with the idea because they are burning a Yule log to keep malevolent influences out. Sabrina responds that her mother is not evil. After the Yule log went out during Sabrina's seance, Ambrose says that he has checked every corner of the house and thinks that whatever entered the house may have left when Zelda relit the Yule log. Zelda thinks whatever entities entered the house may have been hidden. Zelda allows Hilda to share the room but warns her not to snore due to the presence of Leticia. In private, Ambrose asks Sabrina what she found out. Sabrina says she didn't get the chance to find out what her mother was doing in Limbo. Ambrose is sympathetic to Sabrina, who says she will try again after the Winter Solstice. The following day, Ambrose is chatting with a mouse while deciphering some spells for Father Blackwood. While peering through a mirror, he sees a spirit. Ambrose thinks he is imagining things until a spirit possesses one of the corpses on the mortuary table. Ambrose hears the laughter of children as the lights close and hatchets begin banging. Ambrose binds the corpses and every hatchet in the mortuary. He tells them that they have an infestation of poltergeists. Shortly later, Sabrina returns and asks what is going on. Later, Zelda and the others discuss the Yule Lads home invasion. The Yule Lads won't leave until their mother Gryla tells them to. Zelda explains that Gryla was a witch who made a pact with another witch from her coven during a famine. They would eat their own children to survive. They cooked and devoured Gryla's son first but the other witch broke her pact. Devastated, Gryla spent the next millennium finding children to add to her family, taking an interest in orphans. Zelda says that they have to summon Gryla to make an offering. Zelda tells Ambrose that he has to leave during Gryla's visit because she hates men due to her abandonment by her husband. Ambrose says that he has been invited for a Solstice party with Luke Chalfant. Zelda says they have to hide baby Leticia. Sabrina offers to look after Leticia in the mortuary. Later that evening, Zelda allows Gryla to visit their home after she agrees to abide by their rules. Zelda and Hilda ask Gryla to take her Yule Lads home in return for an offering of fresh-baked Christmas solstice cookies, a cone of sugar, a pound of marzipan, some mince pies, yummy teacakes, and fruit jelly. Gryla agrees to drink gin with Hilda and Zelda. Afterwards, Ambrose meets Luke at a Solstice dinner. When he returns, he teleports Roz home before her parents begin to worry and then feeds Letica, who Zelda gives to a wood witch named Desmelda for her protection.

The Top Boy Selection
When Sabrina awakes after the Winter Break, Ambrose and their aunts comment about her choice of clothes and loud music. Sabrina tells her aunts about her plans to spend more of her time at the Academy of Unseen Arts, having obtained indefinite leave from Baxter High's new Principal Wardwell. Father Blackwood informs the student body of an election for Top Boy. Nick Scratch is nominated for top boy. Sabrina offers to contest the election on the grounds that she had signed the Book of the Beast. She calls for all students regardless of their gender to have a voice. Nick nominates Sabrina and is seconded by Prudence. As part of the top boy selection, Father Blackwood announces that the candidates have to take part in three challenges at the Desecrated Church: the Inquisition, the Boil and Bubble, and the Conjuring. This will be followed by a vote. Back at the Spellman home, Zelda talks about how Edward Spellman served as top boy. Ambrose tells Sabrina that he and Luke Chalfant have been invited for a party to celebrate Nick’s nomination as Top Boy at Dorian's Gray Room, which is reserved for men. Zelda says Sabrina is too busy for her studies. Sabrina asks Ambrose and Lucas if they will support her. Lucas is unwilling but Ambrose says he will wait to see how she will do in the trial first. Meanwhile, Father Blackwood meets with the warlocks at Dorian Gray's Room and brings King Herod's daughter Salome to dance for their entertainment. At Dorian Gray's Room, Ambrose get upset when Salome serves them an effigy of Sabrina’s head. Father Blackwood reminds him to vote for Nick Scratch. Later, Sabrina tells Ambrose she was attacked by Asmodeus and his rats. She asked if Luke summoned the demon. Sabrina questions Ambrose about whether he will support her. Ambrose in turn questions her loyalty to the coven and her assault on tradition. Sabrina reiterates her goal to be Top Boy, generating a wind that causes the furniture to rumble. Hilda sends Sabrina to bed. At the Desecrated Church, Ambrose asks Luke about his whereabouts last night at the drinking party. Luke claims he had private business at the Academy. During the Conjuring Test, she and Nick strike a deal to draw circles on the ground. Sabrina accuses Father Blackwood or a member of the coven of sending high demons to attack her. Nick backs Sabrina up and tells Blackwood that they want to know the truth and summon the Plague Kings. The Plague Kings identify themselves as Beelzebub, Asmodeus, and Purson. Sabrina demands to know who sent them to kill her.The Plague Kings claim they operate independently of Satan and the coven but that they wish death on the "half-breed" Sabrina because of the chaos she will bring. Nick questions the demons but Father Blackwood banishes the three demons.Father Blackwood summons Nick and Sabrina into his office. In private, Blackwood says that the demons acted on their own volition. Father Blackwood decides that neither of them are worthy of the title of Top Boy and instead designates Ambrose Spellman as Top Boy. He makes Ambrose a full-time student. Father Blackwood talks with Ambrose in private.

A Disturbing Tarot Reading
Later Ambrose visits Dr Cerberus's shop and Mrs. McGarvey tells him that many questions hang over him. Ambrose disagrees and says he is blessed with talent, good looks, and a hot boyfriend. Ambrose's boyfriend Luke Chalfant is away on business. Mrs. McGarvey tells him that he is not well connected yet. Ambrose agrees to let McGarvey read his tarot cards. He picks a hierophant and a Devil. In the vision, Father Blackwood tells him that he wants to induct him into a secret brotherhood in return for absolute loyalty. First, Blackwood requires some assistance in the Desecrated Church. On that night, he claims that he will forge Ambrose's future with sacred and arcane metallurgy and alchemy. He tasks him with crafting a tool that will unlock his full powers. Ambrose forges a tool while Father Blackwood tells him his secret agenda to reverse Edward Spellman’s damage to the Church of Night. Father Blackwood offers to mould Ambrose in the Dark Lord’s image in return for correcting his aunties and cousin Sabrina, claiming that he will be their prison until then. Father Blackwood gives him a sharp tool and tasks him with putting his house in order. Ambrose returns to the Spellman household. He is greeted by a growling Salem. Ambrose kills Zelda. He runs into a startled Hilda and ends her as well. Ambrose then enters Sabrina’s room and kills her. A blood-stained Ambrose returns to Father Blackwood, who inducts him into the Judas Society and leaves a badge on his jacket. In the present, Ambrose realizes that Luke was not in his vision. Mrs. McGarvey tells him that in this case not knowing the truth is better. He demands that she shows him that card but she refuses. He leaves the store, bumping into Dr Cerberus.

Betrayal
Later, Zelda reassures her family that her marriage to Father Blackwood would be the re-making of their family. Zelda is delighted that the Anti-Pope, the leader of all the Churches of Darkness himself, is traveling from the Vatican Necropolis to officiate over their marriage. She believes this is an honor from the Dark Lord and looks forward to becoming Zelda Spellman-Blackwood. Hilda wishes she could be there. Zelda reassures her that she will use her influence to convince Father Blackwood to lift his excommunication and that she will have a role as the "maid of dishonor." Sabrina does not support the wedding because she knows that Zelda does not love Father Blackwood. Zelda says that Sabrina is too young to understand and that nothing will change her plans. Salem growls and Sabrina tells Ambrose to leave her familiar alone. Ambrose demands that Salem regurgitate Leviathan but Sabrina speaks up for her familiar. Hilda realizes that Ambrose is upset about Luke's death and tries to comfort him. Zelda does not want to hear any talk about death but only smiles this week. Later, Sabrina recounts her encounter with her father’s ghost blaming Father Blackwood for killing her parents. Zelda is dismissive of Sabrina’s story while Hilda quips that there are a lot of hauntings near weddings. Zelda says that an independent inquiry conducted by the Witch Council into her parents' deaths concluded that the plane crash was the result of mechanical error. Zelda says that the ghost was ill-informed. Sabrina then mentions that her father’s ghost told her to finish his manifesto. Hilda recalls the manifesto but Zelda dismisses her father’s manifesto as nothing more than romantic musings about "mortal-witch intermingling."Sabrina is annoyed with Zelda for not taking her seriously but Zelda responds that Sabrina was drinking absinthe in the afternoon when her visitation occurred. Zelda refuses to discuss the matter and releases Sabrina from her bridesmaid duties. Zelda says that she is worried about the spectre of Lady Blackwood, which she saw wondering the cemetery with malicious intent. Zelda tasks Hilda with dealing with ghosts. Zelda tells Sabrina that she will only take her account seriously when he sees Edward's ghost.Later, Ambrose tells Sabrina might be right because he heard a tarot reading where Father Blackwood told him to murder his family. Ambrose adds that Blackwood inducted him into a secret society of warlocks that will meet the night before the Anti-Pope's arrival. Sabrina tells Ambrose they have to find out everything. She believes that the High Priest is breaking her family, having murdered her parents and seeking to marry Aunt Zelda. Sabrina thinks that too much is happening around her wedding for this to be a coincidence. When Ambrose asks her about the role of the Anti-Pope, Sabrina says she doesn’t know but knows someone who can help. Later, Father Blackwood holds a memorial service for the late Lucas Chalfant during a meeting of the Judas Society. Blackwood outlines his Five Facets of Judas. His followers chant hail Satan before dismissing his followers. Father Blackwood then speaks with Ambrose privately and tasks him with guarding the Anti-Pope during his stay at the Academy before he arrives at Greendale. Blackwood explains that would have been Lucas' responsibility. Back at the house, Sabrina shows Ambrose her father's five-point manifesto. Sabrina thinks that her parents were traveling to the Vatican to reform the Church of Night and that Father Blackwood murdered them before they could do that. Ambrose says he believes her and tells both Sabrina and Nick that he attended a meeting of the Judas Society. He tells her about Blackwood's manifesto, which he describes as a misogynistic regression to the "old old days." Ambrose explains that Blackwood plans to present his manifesto to the Anti-Pope and that he will be stationed outside Blackwood's office during the meeting. Sabrina says she could take advantage of that to present her father's manifesto to the Anti-Pope, derailing Blackwood’s plot to regress the Church of Night and the wedding. Later that night, the Judas Society stands guard as the Anti-Pope meets with Father Blackwood and Zelda. The Anti-Pope compliments Zelda's beauty and accompanies them into the Academy. Prudence speaks with Zelda but she apologizes that her father won't budge despite her efforts. Father Blackwood introduces Nick Smith to the Anti-Pope. Sabrina also introduces her to the Anti-Pope, who praises her father for his work as a High Priest and skills as a warlock. Father Blackwood frowns. The Anti-Pope says that he sadly perished before they could meet and discuss his philosophies. Father Blackwood offers to give the Anti-Pope a tour of the Academy. Fatrher Blackwood proposes a summit of all the Churches of Darkness to review all their universal laws. The Anti-Pope says that his predecessor Blackwood had made a similar request prior to his death. The Anti-Pope is supportive but asks who will lead the summit. Father Blackwood volunteers to host the summit and to present his Judas Society's five tenets, which he vows will return the Churches of Night to its former glory. Sabrina then enters the room with Ambrose and tells the Anti-Pope that she found a copy of her fathers manifesto. Despite Blackwood's objections, the Anti-Pope says he will retire to his chambers to consider both doctrines and to decide which is worthy enough to put before the Witches Council. Ambrose suddenly, feels pain in his stomach before passing out. When he comes to, Ambroise is covered in blood and the Anti Pope is dead. Father Blackwood enters the Anti-Pope's chambers and strikes down two of the Judas Society stalwarts guarding him. Despite Zelda and Hilda's pleas, he tries to strike down Ambrose who manages to teleport to safety. He orders the others to find the traitor. Meanwhile, Sabrina is caressing Nick when a bloodied Ambrose arrives with news of the Anti-Pope’s murder. Ambrose says he can't remember what happened but insists it was not him. Salem growls as they hear Father Blackwood bellowing orders to the Judas Society. Sabrina tells Nick to hide Ambrose. At Dorian's Gray Room, Dorian Gray tells the Judas Society that he has not seen Ambrose and the warlocks depart. After they have left, Dorian changes into Ambrose and tells Dorian Gray that he can come out of the painting he was hiding in. Gray says he will do anything for his friend Nick. Ambrose is sickly and serves him a drink. Ambrose vomits out his familiar Leviathan and realizes that the mouse was hiding inside him. Dorian tells Ambrose that the mouse was controlling him/ When Ambrose reveals that Leviathan was a gift from Father Blackwood, Gray deduces that Blackwood was behind the Anti Pope's murder. Gray tells Ambrose that Blackwood takes advantage of his boys. When Ambrose asks what he means, Dorian reveals that every warlock who gets close to Father Blackwood ends up dead such as Luke. Ambrose asks if Blackwood murdered Luke and Gray tells him it's very possible. Ambrose vows to kill Blackwood for murdering Luke. Ambrose tries to interrupt the wedding but Prudence magically restrains him. He is then subdued and captured by the other Judas Society boys. He's then thrown into the Witches Cell.

Imprisonment
Ambrose is working out in his cell when Dorcas enters with his gruel rations. Ambrose requests something more succulent and rubs his body against Dorcas. Prudence tells Ambrose to get away from her sister, causing her to drop the tray of gruel. She chides Dorcas for her infatuation with Ambrose. Ambrose tries to flirt with Prudence but she denounces him as a traitor and tells him that he will rot in this cell until he provides a confession. Ambrose says he has spent 75 years under house arrest and that it will take more to break him. Prudence allows the Infernal Bailiff to rough Ambrose up. Prudence leads "Hilda" into Ambrose's cell. Ambrose asks if it is really her and she comforts him. He says that death would be much better than a living hell. "Hilda" tells Ambrose to plead guilty. Ambrose asks "Hilda" what is her favourite episode of Fawlty Towers. "Hilda" claims that she loves them all but Ambrose points out that she hates Fawlty Towers and demands to know who she is. Dorcas removes the glamour and tells him that he is going to die in this cell. Later, the Weird Sisters torment Ambrose by throwing him the bones from Hilda's succulent chicken. While going through the bones, Ambrose finds that one of the bones has a hidden key. Prudence tells her students that tonight they are collecting their energies to enact a spell of compulsion. She enlists their help on forcing Ambrose to confess his treason. The witches and warlocks begin chanting in unison. Meanwhile, Ambrose uses Aunt Hilda's bone to unlock the door to his cell. As they chant, he runs out of his cell. Meanwhile, two witch-hunters converge on the Academy. Jerathmiel uses Luke's hands to unlock the door. The two of them encounter Ambrose, who warns the Academy that the witch-hunters have come. Prudence orders the other witches and warlocks to hide while she and the Weird Sisters face the intruders. Jerathmiel and Mehitable enter the classroom and demand that the witches and warlocks come out of hiding. Prudence, Agatha, and Dorcas emerge from hiding and use magic to force the two witch-hunters to their knees. She tells Jerathmiel that the pain in his head is his brain atomizing into sand and Mehitable that the pain in her chest are her lungs hardening. The Weird Sisters tell the witch-hunters that they are no ordinary witches but they are the daughters of the Church of Night, the "three-in-one." However, Mehitable and Jerathmiel call upon the heavenly choir of the Nine Principalities to give them victory over the witches, causing the Weird Sisters to bleed from their eyes and ears. Mehitable and Jerathmiel tell them that they are no ordinary witch-hunters but they are angels. Sabrina, Hilda, Nick, and Harvey arrive and discover that the witch-hunters have breached the Academy. Sabrina calls for the Weird Sisters. She and Hilda find a bloodied Ambrose, who has been stabbed and is losing a lot of blood. Hilda removes the knife and casts a spell to seal the wound. Ambrose says that the Angels took the others. Harvey asks aren't angels supposed to be nice but Nicky points out that they have fiery swords. Quentin appears and tells Sabrina that the Angels tried to take him and the other children to Heaven but that they ran and hid. Hilda asks where the Angels took the other witches and wizards. Quentin says that they took them to the Desecrated Church. When Harvey asks why, Nick explains that the Angels want to convert and kill them in order to cleanse them. Quentin tells them not to go to the Desecrated Church because the Angels have sealed it with holy water and re-consecrated it. Quentin says that no witches can go in and out. Sabrina sends Quentin to hide. Hilda says that she has to tend to Ambrose's wounds. Harvey offers to go inside the church but Nick points out that they are dealing with avenging angels. Sabrina says that she can enter the church because she was baptized with holy water. Sabrina convinces them to accept her plan even though Nick and Harvey regard it as a suicide mission. She tells them to help Hilda look after Ambrose.

Salvation
Harvey carries the unconscious Sabrina back to the Academy of Unseen Arts. He is followed by the Weird Sisters and the liberated students. Nick tells Harvey that Hilda is in the dormitory. Hilda has not yet finishing patching up Ambrose yet. She panics and tells them to leave the arrows inside Sabrina until she has finished tending to Ambrose. Nick asks Harvey what happened. Harvey tells Nick that Sabrina was floating in the air and that her eyes were white. He tells her that she did several crazy things and then collapsed as if the light had gone out of her. Nick doesn't understand what Harvey saw until Melvin explains that Sabrina slaughtered two angels while Elspeth mentions that Sabrina brought them back from the dead. Elspeth likens Sabrina to a god. Despite her efforts, Hilda is unable to stop Ambrose's wounds from bleeding due to the angels' blades. Sabrina tells them she can help and rises from the bed, fully healed. She walks to Ambrose and lays her hands on him. She tells him that he is strong and that his wounds are stitching themselves shut. Sabrina heals Ambrose and tells him that he will just be fine. Hilda and the others are shocked by Sabrina's miracles. The next day, Ambrose asks Sabrina how she is doing considering what happened last night. Sabrina insists she is fine. Ambrose says that he and Hilda are just worried about her. Hilda says that Sabrina is not a healer but Sabrina retorts maybe she did not know that she had the power to heal. She says that she will go and asks "Ms Wardwell". Hilda insists that Sabrina stay until Aunt Zelda gets back from her honeymoon. Ambrose reminds them of his impending execution. Sabrina responds that Ambrose should be pardoned for his role in defending the Academy and asks if someone can testify on his behalf. Ambrose responds that the only ones who know the truth are him, Father Blackwood and his dead familiar Leviathan. Hilda suggests they have a picnic indoors but Sabrina says maybe the weather could clear up. She uses her new-found powers to stop the rain and to bring sunny weather, startling both Ambrose and Hilda. Later, Hilda escorts Sabrina, Nick, and Ambrose back to the Academy. Father Blackwood tells Sabrina that he and Zelda were recalled from their honeymoon to deal with the emergency caused by the witch-hunters. After interviewing her classmates, Blackwood tells Sabrina that she has displayed some miraculous activities. Sabrina responds that she was only saving her fellow witches. Father Blackwood tells her to address him as his Unholy Eminence due to his status as Anti-Pope. Methuselah reminds Blackwood that he is only Interim Anti-Pope. Blackwood asks how can a first-year half-mortal student levitate, resurrect the dead, and kill angels. Sabrina responds by recounting the story of Pandora's jar, arguing that the gods armed her for destruction and vengeance. To dissuade Blackwood from asking her about those miracles, she asks if he really wants to open that lid. Father Blackwood takes offence but Sabrina responds that he should be thanking her. Methuselah thanks Sabrina for her work but tells her to stay within Academy walls while the Council investigates the matter of her miracles. Methuselah allows Hilda and Nick Scratch to roam the school grounds but orders that Ambrose be returned to his cell. Ambrose bows his head in resignation. Later, Meanwhile, Prudence visits Ambrose and taunts him about his faith in his cousin. She asks him what he knows about Sabrina's miracles and clarifies that she is asking for herself. Prudence confides that seeing Sabrina come back from the dead made her cry. Prudence asks Ambrose what is Sabrina. Ambrose tells Prudence to ask her for herself. Ambrose admits that he is frightened. Prudence tells him not to be frightened because he lives with honor and will die with it. She bids him "may Satan keep you." The following day at the Desecrated Church, the witches and warlocks are gathered for the execution of Ambrose. Due to the lack of new evidence, Methuselah orders that Ambrose's execution to proceed as plan. The Infernal Bailiff drags Ambrose before the guillotine and places his head in the block. Father Blackwood orders the executioner to carry out the sentence despite Ambrose's defiance. The executioner lowers the blade but is instead beheaded by a killing spell. Zelda winks at Prudence while Ambrose laughs. Blackwood asks Prudence how Sabrina did it but Prudence says that Sabrina did not move or blink. It is shown that Hilda is holding a pair of pruning shears and a decapitated poppet. While Ambrose laughs, Blackwood orders Marcus Pierce to carry out the sentence. Sabrina dares Blackwood to execute Ambrose himself. Ambrose howls in protest but Blackwood instead orders Sabrina to carry out the execution. Before Sabrina can do it, there is a high-pitched screech followed by a shout of "Enough!" Ambrose sees that the Dark Lord has appeared. As the congregation bows, he asks Father Blackwood if he is so blind to His will. Blackwood stutters for a respectful response only for Satan to tell him "Silence Pretender!" Lucifer chastises him for degrading the coven with his pettiness and orders Ambrose spared before disappearing. Methuselah declares that Ambrose is reprieved and orders his release. At the Spellman household, Hilda encourages Ambrose to eat. The three share a toast. The bell rings and Sabrina reminds them of the meeting she had organized. Holding a disco theme, Sabrina receives many visitors including Roz's friends. Someone spots Sabrina standing on the top of her roof with a broomstick. Hilda is shocked to see Sabrina on the roof and orders her to get down now. Ambrose tells Hilda that Sabrina’s plans are going to change things but maybe not for the better. Sabrina addresses her friends and says that her father saw a world where witches and mortals can be together. Before she can continue, she is interrupted by Harvey who tells her that if she ever loved him to stop what she is doing and to come down right now. He implores her to come down as there's something that Sabrina really needs to see.

Repaying Sabrina
Sabrina later comes to him and tells him that what Harvey and Theo had to show her was a mural that reveals that she is the Herald of Hell and tells him not to tell her aunts. Sabrina tells him they can stop the Apocalypse from happening. Ambrose listens as Sabrina explains her plan to create a doppelganger of herself using one of Hilda's mandrake spells. Sabrina explains that the mandrake will siphon off her darker energies and that it will grow using those energies. Ambrose deduces that she will immediately kill it and thus releasing those energies into the universe. Sabrina thinks that this will prevent the prophecy from taking place but Ambrose points out that she doesn't fully understand the prophecy. Ambrose questions the authenticity of the prophecy but Sabrina says that she can feel it in her bones. Sabrina believes that her Dark Baptism was a prelude to her destiny to becoming the Herald of Hell. Sabrina says she knows this to true. Ambrose thinks that Sabrina’s plan amounts to suicide and that she will age like a mortal. He says that Sabrina become a mortal would hurt her family. Sabrina says that she came to Ambrose because she hoped that he could understand that her life is not her own. Sabrina adds that she is little more than a pawn in the Dark Lord's "perverse game." Sabrina says she is not making this decision lightly and affirms her love for her family and Nick. She is prepared to make this sacrifice to avert the End of Days by relinquishing her powers. Ambrose agrees to help and says they need a mandrake root from Aunt Hilda’s garden and thirteen hours. Later in the mortuary, Ambrose chants in Latin over Sabrina, who is a lying on a bed. The mandrake is situated on the next bed. He tells her to sleep while he watches over her. Sabrina thanks her cousin. Ambrose drinks something and watches over Sabrina. The following morning, Sabrina awakes from her sleep and finds that the mandrake hasn’t transformed. She asks Ambrose what they can do, thinking that the mandrake spell hasn't work. Ambrose proposes making a golem out of river mud and destroying it when it animates. Sabrina asks if they must go to Sweetwater River and mold a double. Ambrose says that if she is determined to shed herself of her powers then yes. He tells her they must drown it in the river. Sabrina and Ambrose tell Aunt Hilda that they are going out for bagels and coffee. Later, Ambrose finds the distraught Mandrake Sabrina  at the Spellman house, who tells her that her friends Harvey, Rosalind, and Theo are dead with their heads smashed in and their bodies pulped. Ambrose tells her that she is not making any sense. The mandrake says they were so beautiful and asks why anyone would want to kill those souls, saying that they would have grown up together. The mandrake says she just wanted them to love her and asks if Ambrose loves her. Ambrose tells her to lie down and that he will be back. Mandrake Sabrina asks if she can lie on his lap and asks him to comfort her. She pleads with him not to reject her. Sabrina returns and tells Ambrose to stay away from that impostor. Ambrose realizes that the mandrake spell worked. The mandrake claims that she is the one true Sabrina, the one with the sacred magics handed down by their ancestors. She calls Sabrina a pathetic, powerless mortal and tells Ambrose to kill her. She says she wished that she done it herself and pleads with Ambrose to kill Sabrina. Sabrina responds that if her doppelganger knew Ambrose, she would know that he would never hurt her. Ambrose changes his tune and says that it would be dishonourable for a Spellman to kill Sabrina with magic and proposes settling the matter with a pistol duel. The mandrake says that she has never heard of such a Witch law but Sabrina responds that her cousin is always teaching her new things. She says that it seems like a dignified honorable end for the two of them unless her doppelganger is not honorable. The mandrake insists she is honorable and accepts the duel. Sabrina accepted. The mandrake tells her to meet at the place they were born at the witching hour. Later, Sabrina has second thoughts about the duel. Ambrose tries to encourage her but warns that she will never get her witch powers back once she kills her doppelganger. Sabrina asks if there is any other way to stop the prophecy and if it will hurt the mandrake. Ambrose replies the mandrake is a vegetable but that it is also her and has all her thoughts, wants, and needs. He says that the mandrake just wants to exist and to be loved. He explains that the mandrake's weakness is that it has the mind of a newborn and hasn’t learned things like strategy. Sabrina and Ambrose meet with the mandrake. The mandrake asks if there is not other way this could play out and wishes for the best for both their sakes. Ambrose presents the pistols and issues the rules. The two Sabrinas turn their backs and move to a distance. Sabrina shoots at her doppelganger after the countdown. Before falling, the mandrake says that Sabrina shot early and that it was not fair. Sabrina responds no it is not. She comforts her dying doppelganger and tells her that it will be okay. She tells her doppelganger that she is so sorry and strokes her head. Ambrose reassures Sabrina that it was a mercy killing that had to be done. He says that he hoped they have stopped the Apocalypse from happening. Just then, Nick arrives with Ms Wardwell. Sabrina says it is over but Nick responds that it is the last act. Wardwell adds that it is the final step in the prophecy. Just then lightning strikes a stone table. Wardwell says that the prophecy is being fulfilled and that the End of Days is upon them. She vows that the Dark Lord will walk the Earth in its true form and that she will sit by his side and rule as his Queen.

Stopping the Apocolyse
Sabrina, Nick, and Ambrose go to Zelda and Hilda and explain that "Ms Wardwell" manipulated Sabrina into fulfilling a prophecy meant to bring about the end of the world. She explains that the Dark Lord is in his true form and is somewhere in Greendale. Sabrina says that the Gates of Hell are about to open, releasing the hordes of Hell. Hilda is shocked. Nick explains that the Dark Lord's plan is to enslave the tribes of human and witchkind and to rule over everything with his demon army. Ambrose adds that Sabrina created a mandrake that absorbed all her witch powers. Sabrina says that is not even the worse of it. When Zelda asks what is worse than her being mortal, Ambrose explains that Sabrina is meant to rule by the Dark Lord’s side as his Queen. Zelda objects to her niece being anyone's bride because Sabrina is too young and vows to stand against the Dark Lord for her family. Zelda tells them to build a protection around the house. Working together, the Spellmans and Nick erect a protect around the house.Zelda is perplexed because the Satanic Bible does not speak of the world being destroyed and remade into a Hell on Earth. Sabrina responds that the Dark Lord wanted the Churches of Darkness to serve him so He kept the truth from them. Sabrina says that the world and not just Greendale is at stake. Zelda vows to protect Sabrina at all costs. Sabrina wonders if her father knew. Zelda takes offense that Sabrina is insinuating that her father connived with the Dark Lord. Sabrina responds that the Dark Lord needed her because she was a girl who represented the two tribes. Sabrina says that the Dark Lord wants to rule over witches and humankind and suggests that is why her father married her mother. Zelda vows to not let Sabrina be the Dark Lord's Queen. Ambrose returns with the Demonicon and says that he has found the Melmoth spell. He explains that involves carving a sigil into her soul provided she constantly worries. Lilith warns them that nobody can run from the Dark Lord. Sabrina asks "Ms Wardwell" is she is here to do more of her master’s bidding. Sabrina tells her family that “Ms Wardwell” has been plotting with the Dark Lord the whole time. When Zelda asks how "Ms Wardwell" got past the onions, she explains that she does not have the same aversion to onions that the Dark Lord has. Lilith tells Sabrina to come along but her aunts and Ambrose threaten to fight back. Lilith reveals that she is not a witch but someone whose shoes Sabrina walked in for one night. Sabrina deduces that "Ms Wardwell" is actually Lilith and that Lilith killed her favourite teacher and has been posing as her in order to serve the Dark Lord. Lilith reiterates the Dark Lord's demands and warns that the Dark Lord will destroy everything and everyone in his path should she resist. Sabrina acquiesces despite her family's protests. She says that she needs answers about her father and mother. Hilda warns Sabrina that she will be like a lamb led to the slaughter. Ambrose volunteers to go with her but Lilith says that Sabrina can only take her familiar Salem. Later, Sabrina comes back and tells them that the Dark Lord told her that he's her father. Ambrose insists that that's not true and Zelda agrees. Sabrina asks if her father Edward would offer up her mother Diana to the Dark Lord. Zelda says that Edward loved Diana and would never do that. Hilda says that it might be true. Ambrose and Zelda react with shock but Hilda reminds Zelda that she was Diana's midwife. Hilda tells Sabrina that her mother struggled to produce a child so that she and Edward went to the Dark Lord who blessed them with a child. Hilda then recalls that Diana came to her and was worried about Sabrina because she thought that the baby wasn't Edward's. Zelda is shocked and asked why the Dark Lord would do such a thing. Ambrose explains that he has read apocryphal books on Satanic lore and that the Dark Lord perverts the Holy Trinity by siring a babe of witch, mortal, and infernal blood. He deduces this was part of the Dark Lord's plan to instigate the apocalypse. As the rain pours down, Sabrina realizes that the Dark Lord tricked her father and used her mother and that He now expects her to fall in line. Sabrina vows to defy Satan and says that she will always be a Spellman. She vows to fight the Dark Lord but admits she doesn't know how. Lilith returns and says she has an idea about how to fight the Dark Lord. Zelda questions why they should trust Lilith. Lilith responds that Sabrina's defiance has given her hope that her story isn't finished. Sabrina says that Lilith is at least being honest. Lilith proposes that they join forces to "gut the bastard." Hilda asks how they can defeat the Dark Lord since he is god. Lilith points out that the Dark Lord has never been a god but is merely a fallen angel, a creature of the cosmos. While the Dark Lord is powerfully ageless, she reassures them that she has seen Satan bleed. She tells them that she knows his weak spots if they wish to listen. Sabrina asks how. Lilith explains that Sabrina is powerless which will work to her advantage. She tells Sabrina that her family is her secret weapon. Lilith explains that the Dark Lord is expecting her at the woods alone. Lilith reassures Sabrina that she won’t be alone and unarmed. She asks if anyone here knows how to smelt. They turn to Ambrose, who welds a blade of pure iron. Lilith says the blade won't kill the Dark Lord but will distract him and that they have to do exactly as she says. In the woods, Lilith tells Sabrina to exploit the Dark Lord's greatest weakness: his arrogance, pride, and ego. She tells Sabrina to flatter the Dark Lord and be in his thrall. She tells Sabrina to keep him facing her at all times. Lilith explains that the Dark Lord has two wounds on his back which have never fully healed, where his wings were ripped from His body. Lilith’s plan involves Sabrina trapping his foot with a horseshoe so that her aunts can stab him in the back with daggers forged in Megiddo, where Christianity was born. The Spellmans carry out Lilith's plan but the Dark Lord reveals that only the Spear of Longinus can kill him. He points the daggers at Zelda and Hilda's neck and throws Ambrose to the ground. The Dark Lord forces Sabrina to pick up Gabriel’s Horn in return for sparing the lives of her aunts. Sabrina grabs the horn from that altar and blows Gabriel’s Horn. The Devil says that the damnation game begins. He warns Sabrina not to defy him again and tells the Spellmans they are expected at her coronation. Ambrose asks now what. Sabrina says that we pray that Harvey, Theo and Roz are nowhere near the Gates right now. Back at the Spellman household, Lilith apologizes for the failure of their plot and says that she has been sent by the Dark Lord to prepare Sabrina for the ball. Lilith tells Sabrina she will make a wonderful queen. However, Sabrina says that the fight is not over and that she has been looking through the spell books on ways to fight the Dark Lord. She tells Lilith that she has been reading her father's journals. Sabrina says that Edward Spellman is more her father than the Dark Lord. Lilith leaves to prepare the demonic aristocracy. Sabrina tells Salem that she will find a way. Suddenly, Prudence appears and begs Zelda, Hilda, and Ambrose to help her sisters and reveals that Blackwood poisoned the entire Coven. She tells Zelda that they are still alive and are at the Desecrated Church. While Hilda and Prudence attend to the Weird Sisters, Zelda and Ambrose teleport themselves to the Desecrated Church. She tells Ambrose they will save as many of them as they can. They start with Melvin and Elspeth. Ambrose asks Prudence how her sisters are. Prudence thanks Hilda for saving their lives. Ambrose tells Prudence that Father Blackwood used them by exploiting their desire for a father. He says that Blackwood blinded them to the family that they already have. The two hold hands. At the throne room, the Dark Lord asks where are his guests. Lilith claims that the aristocrats of Hell and Sabrina are awaiting her word. Lilith arranges a treat for Satan with a woman wearing the blindfold singing a song. She is followed by several masked dancers and singers, who sing a song for the Dark Lord. One of the dancers is Sabrina who takes of her mask. The Dark Lord leads Sabrina to her throne while Lilith presents her crown to the Dark Lord. The Dark Lord crowns Sabrina. He names her as Sabrina Morningstar, Proud Lady of Pandemonium, Maiden of Shadows, and Queen of Hell. The guest shout a toast to Satan and Sabrina. The Dark Lord and Sabrina dance the Mephisto's Waltz. During the dance, Sabrina flatters the Dark Lord and asks if she can address him as dad. He tells her to address him by his formal titles. Sabrina asks the Dark Lord to give her Greendale as her own. The Dark Lord grants her wish.

The Dark Lord is angry at her defiance but Sabrina replies she is a Spellman first. Ambrose throws the Acheron Configuration, trapping the Dark Lord inside. Nick tells her well-played while Zelda says that Edward would have been proud. However, the Dark Lord breaks his way out of the Acheron Configuration and shouts that no prison can contain him. Lilith restrains the Dark Lord and tells him that they need a prison. Nick says there is no stronger prison than the Acheron Configuration but Lilith responds that the human body created by the "False God" is the best prison for the Dark Lord. Sabrina volunteers but Nick instead volunteers in her place. He tells Sabrina that she taught him how to love and traps the Dark Lord in his body. The demon-possessed Nick tries to attack Sabrina but is knocked to the ground. Ambrose restrains Nick with a sleeping spell.

Harvey carries the demon possessed Nick to Lilith, who carries him through the Gates of Hell. Sabrina rubs her head against the Gates of Hell and weeps for Nick. Later, Ambrose and Prudence embark on a quest to hunt down Father Blackwood. Before leaving, Prudence beheads Blackwood’s statue. She tells Ambrose that her father won’t be easy to hunt down and to kill. Ambrose vows to seek his true destiny as a witch, something shared by Prudence.

Physical Appearance
Ambrose is an old British witch of African descent. Despite his age, he appears as a muscular young man in his twenties. Because he is trapped in the house by a curse, Ambrose is more often than not barefoot and wearing trousers and a silk robe on a bare chest. When working in the embalming chamber, Ambrose wears goggles, rubber gloves, and an apron to protect himself from blood and other fluids while working on corpses. In the rare occasions when Ambrose left the house, he wore a velvet blazer, shirt, pants, and Chelsea boots.

Personality
Ambrose is a sagacious and witty man who is always ready to assist and advise Sabrina in her teenage witch dramas. Although Ambrose enjoys taking part in hexing people or indulging his own lust with other witches of all genders, he is also a learned witch who has personally experienced the price to pay for breaking Witch-Law. Ambrose's knowledge of witchcraft spans many occult disciplines and practices, including exorcisms and necromancy. Because he is confined to the home, Ambrose has slowly developed a form of depression fueled by a sense of loneliness and isolation that has become clear during the attack of Batibat, a sleep demon, at the Spellman house.
