Netflix Gets Festive With Virtual Yule Logs for ‘Squid Game,’ ‘Bridgerton,’ ‘Spellbound’

Todd Spangler NY Digital Editor Now burning up on Netflix: a new spin on the classic TV yule-log. With less than two weeks to go before Christmas, Netflix has launched three themed virtual yule logs, each 60 minutes in length, based on Shonda Rhimes’ “Bridgerton” series, South Korean hit “Squid Game” (with Season 2 set to premiere Dec.

26) and animated film “Spellbound” from director Vicky Jenson with music by Alan Menken. The yule logs are available for Netflix members worldwide.

The Bridgerton Fireplace is (naturally) set in the Bridgerton living room and features background music from the series. Squid Game’s version is set in the Head Man’s office, while the Spellbound Fireplace is not a fireplace at all — it’s a campfire in the magical wilderness of the movie’s fantasy kingdom of Lumbria. (You can find the yule logs at these links — Squid Game, Bridgerton, Spellbound — or by searching for the titles.) Netflix has outfitted each yule log with Easter eggs for eagle-eyed fans.

In the “Bridgerton” scene, you’ll find Lady Whistledown’s quill pen and one of her folded newsletters and a bouquet of wisteria.
