The Peacock Original series will debut on Friday, October 13, 2023.
The series explores the dark secrets and unspeakable evil that sometimes lurks beneath the surface of the sun-drenched streets, manicured lawns and friendly neighbors of suburbia. Each episode focuses on one true tale of terror, told by the real people who lived through it. Their firsthand accounts are brought to life through premium cinematic scene work, news clips, home photos, and archival footage, combining the visual language of horror films with the tools and techniques of documentaries, creating a uniquely frightening experience for viewers.
Carpenter, the mastermind behind classic horror films like Halloween, The Fog, and The Thing, produces alongside Sandy King, Tony DiSanto, showrunner Jordan Roberts, Patrick Smith, and Andy Portnoy, in addition to composing the series’ theme music. Other episodes are directed by Jordan Roberts, Michelle Latimer, and Jan Pavlacky.
