Hysteria!is the latest horror series hittingPeacock, and if you’re a fan ofEvil Deadyou’re going to love the homage the trailer pays to the beloved franchise. Speaking of,Sam Raimi has a new horror movie on Netflix,which we’re all very excited about.
Inour first lookat the upcoming series, we found out that Ash Williams himself is involved, with horror icon Bruce Campbell playing a police officer in this small town. Now, the full trailer has dialed that up to 100 and there’s plenty to get you hooked when the series debuts on October 18, just in time for Halloween!
Take a look at the exciting new trailer below to see what I mean.
What do we know about Hysteria so far?
The fullHysteria!trailer really gives us a taste of the Satanic Panic that the series centers around, where a group of high schoolers create a band to profit off the recent interest in the occult and supernatural. It’s a genius idea really, until things start taking a much darker turn – as it happens, all those ghost stories weren’t stories after all!
We’ve also got a first proper look at Bruce Campbell, who has previously been teased. You can see theEvil Deadreferences throughout, especially the quote “we got them from a public library, not a book bound in human flesh”. Not only does it go hard, it’s also a fun nod to the Necronomicon Ex-Mortis seen in the horror franchise.
While there’s plenty for horror nerds to geek out over, there is also lots of newcomers to enjoy too. Those who enjoy a good thrill will want to tune in when it arrives next month.
