Here’s some surprising news! AMC’s supernatural anthology series The Terror has been renewed for a third season! The announcement comes five years after Season 2 ended, and I never thought that we’d see another season.
The next installment of the series is titled The Terror: Devil in Silver and the six-part series is based on the novel The Devil in Silver, written by Victor LaValle. He is writing the series alongside Chris Cantwell, who was showrunner on AMC’s tech drama Halt and Catch Fire.
The Terror: Devil in Silver tells the story of Pepper, “a working-class moving man who, through a combination of bad luck and a bad temper, finds himself wrongfully committed to New Hyde Psychiatric Hospital – an institution filled with the people society would rather forget. There, he must contend with patients who work against him, doctors who harbor grim secrets and perhaps even the very devil himself. As Pepper navigates a hellscape where nothing is as it seems, he finds that the only path to freedom is to face down the entity that thrives on the suffering within New Hyde’s walls. But doing so might prove that the worst demons of all live inside him.”
Well, that sounds like it’s going to make for a fascinating and twisted story! Yellowjackets and Jennifer’s Body director Karyn Kusama will direct the first two episodes and will executive produce the series.
Dan McDermott, president of entertainment and AMC Studios for AMC Networks shared in a statement: “The Terror anthology series has already delivered to fans two unforgettable seasons of storytelling that blend real-world events and characters with a terrifying and mysterious supernatural element. The Devil in Silver offers a perfect opportunity for a new installment of this popular and critically acclaimed anthology. We are looking forward to once again working with Chris Cantwell, who we partnered with so successfully on Halt and Catch Fire, Victor LaValle, Karyn Kusama and this great producing team to share our version of Victor’s heralded and disturbing novel.”
The first season of the series was based on Dan Simmons’ novel and the story was set on the frigid decks of a Victorian Era sailing ship following a doomed course. Season 2 is titled The Terror: Infamy and that season centers on a malevolent, shape-shifting force that is locked up with prisoners in a Japanese internment camp.
Are you excited to hear that we’re getting another season of The Terror!? What do you think of the story that it will tell?
