Peacock has released the first trailer for a new horror anthology series from legendary filmmaker John Carpenter titled Suburban Screams. Till the season for horror projects, and this one will feature six terrifying stories to ring in the spirit of the Halloween season.
The series is described as “a genre-busting unscripted horror anthology series from the mind of legendary director, writer, and producer, John Carpenter. 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.”
It’s explained that “each episode will delve into the monstrous evil that lurks beneath the surface of friendly suburbia through the lens of one frightful tale. In addition to firsthand accounts, the episodes will include cinematic reenactments, personal archives, and historic town press coverage.”
Carpenter actually directed one of the six episodes alongside showrunner Jordan Roberts, Michelle Latimer, and Jan Pavlacky. Carpenter also composes the series’ theme music.
John Carpenter’s Suburban Screams premieres October 13th on Peacock. Enjoy the trailer!
