Doctor Who Wrings New Horror From an Old Monster

Set in an eerie empty space station revisited by *Doctor Who*, *The Well* ties together a haunting sci-fi horror trope with a shell-shocked survivor named Aliss. The episode shifts decades later to Diamond Planet's abandoned mine shaft, where the TARDIS malfunctions for Belinda’s 2025 trip home before revealing its location as "Midnight" decades ago. Connecting themes from past episodes like *Midnight*, *The Well* leaves an unsettling open-ended threat and hints at the past still holding answers—potentially from itself.
