following the annual Pretty Little Liars Halloween episode.

Ravenswood is from PLL executive producers I.

into the town's mysterious history.

its season three finale drew 2.08 million viewers 12-34 on March 19. Its fourth
season premieres on Tuesday, June 11.

Both series are produced by Alloy Entertainment
in association with Warner Horizon Television.
