A new teaser video has been released for the anticipated second season of the Emmy nominated Neflix original series, ‘Hemlock Grove.’ The new season is set to premiere on Friday, July 11. The supernatural thriller, which was executive producer by Eli Roth, will unveil all 10 of the season’s episodes at 12:01 am PT.
‘Hemlock Grove,’ which is based on Brian McGreevy’s novel of the same name, stars Famke Janssen, Bill Skarsgård, Landon Liboiron and Dougray Scott. The series explores the strange happenings in a small Pennsylvania town. It also focuses on the unlikely friendship between the founding family’s young heir, Roman Godfrey (Skarsgård), and gypsy newcomer and outsider, Peter Rumancek (Liboiron). Each holds a monstrous secret that has been unleashed.
Season 2 continues with the town coming to accept the shocking massacre that incurred by one of its deadliest creatures. Roman and Peter are now faced with new responsibilities and the realities that come with adulthood.
Roman’s relationship with his mother, Olivia (Janssen), is all but dead as he struggles with his unwanted Upir birthright and the disappearance of his sister, Shelley (Madeleine Martin). Peter moves in with Destiny (Kaniehtiio Horn) and is forced to get a job after his mother is sent away. Meanwhile, in search of a new life, newcomer Miranda Cates (Madeline Brewer), embarks on Hemlock Grove with an unknowingly profound effect on Peter and Roman. Norman (Scott), still reeling from the loss of his family, must face the harsh truths that are uncovered about those he still loves.
“I cannot wait for fans to see what’s in store for season two – it is going to blow away all expectsations,” Roth said. “Netflix has been an incredible partner, and whenever we wanted to take the story in a dangerous direction, they encouraged us to go even further – into a scarier, darker, and sexier place. We guarantee you won’t see anything like this anywhere else on television.”
