‘Hemlock Grove,’ the Emmy Award-nominated horror series from executive producer Eli Roth, will premiere its third season exclusively on Netflix in 2015. The Internet television network also announced the upcoming season of the mystery thriller will be its last.
The show, which is based on Brian McGreevy’s novel of the same name, will feature 10 episodes during the upcoming season. Charles H. Eglee will return as the show’s showrunner for the final installments of ‘Hemlock Groove.’
The drama series marks Roth’s television debut, after he wrote and directed the hit horror films, ‘Hostel’ and its first sequel, as well as ‘Cabin Fever.’ The show was developed by Brian McGreevy and Lee Shipman. The one-hour gothic thriller series is produced by Gaumont International Television for Netflix.
The second season of ‘Hemlock Groove’ launched on Netflix in July. The season followed the residents of the title town as they continued to come to terms with the shocking massacre from one of its deadliest creatures. Roman (Bill Skarsgård) and Peter (Landon Liboiron) faced new responsibilities and the realities that come with adulthood.
Roman struggled with his relationship with his mother, Olivia (Famke Janssen), as he wrestled with his unwanted Upir birthright and the disappearance of his sister, Shelley (Madeleine Martin). Peter moved in with Destiny (Kaniehtiio Horn) and was forced to get a job after his mother was sent away. Meanwhile, in search of a new life, newcomer Miranda Cates (Madeline Brewer), embarked on Hemlock Grove with an unknowingly profound effect on Peter and Roman. Norman (Dougray Scott), still reeling from the loss of his family, faced the harsh truth about those he loved.
