Showtime's Penny Dreadful returns this weekend (May 3rd), and it continues to dig into the traditional monster tales, from vampires to werewolves, while also mining deeper into well known characters, from Dr. Frankenstein to Dorian Grey. And unlike Twilight and other newer versions with likeable and sexy monsters, these creatures here remain rough and true to form. These are beasts for adults. And let's not forget the witches, which this clip will illustrate.
In an interview, show creator John Logan stated,
This
season, we embrace witchcraft...The
character Evelyn Poole (a.k.a. Madame Kali, the spiritualist introduced
at the séance in Season 1) becomes the antagonist for not only Vanessa
but all the characters...Sir
Malcolm is drawn into a relationship with Evelyn Poole that alienates
him, romantically, personally, and supernaturally, from the rest of the
people in the series.
Plenty of demons for all here. And take a look at this more general trailer for the show to come.
