For the show's pilot and first 21 days of work, Rogers raked in $20,000, reports TMZ.

Since the show was picked up for series, Rogers will now earn a whopping $20,000 per episode for season one.

No word on how many episodes will be in season one, but Rogers will make even more if the show gets picked up for a second season, according to her contract.

TMZ was able to obtain a copy of Rogers' contract because it has to be filed with the courts since she is still a minor.

In comparison, 12-year-old actress Rowan Blanchard is reported to be making $10,000 per episode for the new Disney show, "Girl Meets World."

Despite her age, Rogers has many credits to her name. The 10-year-old has appeared on 17 TV shows since 2012, including NBC's "Private Practice" and ABC's "Once Upon a Time in Wonderland."

"The Whispers" - about aliens who take over Earth using children - also stars "American Horror Story" actress Lily Rabe, "Heroes" star Milo Ventimiglia, and tons of other little-known child actors.

"The Whispers" will premiere mid-season on ABC. Watch the super creepy trailer below:
