The iconic character, Wednesday Addams, has captured audiences’ attention with her distinctive style. The show is the first adaptation of The Addams Family to show that each family member possesses supernatural powers, even delving into the abilities of their ancestors from centuries past. Unlike previous adaptations, where their eerie traits were left to interpretation, the powers featured in the show play a crucial role in the storyline of Season 1.
Wednesday is set at Nevermore Academy, a school for outcasts, and follows Jenna Ortega’s Wednesday as she hones her growing powers. While some characters have yet to showcase their powers, the show ensured that Wednesday, Morticia, Gomez, Pugsley, and their relative all possess unique supernatural gifts. With season 2 on its way, let’s have a look at the powers of all Addams Family members.
Wednesday (Jenna Ortega)
In season 1 of the show, Wednesday Addams admits to experiencing powerful visions for the past year, which clears out that she has psychic powers. While her powers happen randomly, they are typically brought on by touching someone or something, showing her a connected moment from the past or future. Her psychic ability is inherited from both of her parents’ sides as her mother, Morticia Frump, is a powerful psychic. At the same time, her father’s ancestor, Goody Adams, was a witch and psychic. Her type of psychic is known as “raven”.
