The first season “The Terror”, based on the novel of the same name by Dan Simmons, not only thrilled the audience. We at FILMSTARTS were also blown away by the icy horror adventure – which ultimately earned the series a place in the list of the best series of 2018. After the second season of ‘The Terror’ started in 2019, the celebrated anthology format went silent for a long time. . Until now.
After five years, it has now been officially confirmed that a third season is in development. This one is subtitled “Devil In Silver” and will consist of six episodes and will be released in 2025. While “The Terror” celebrates its U.S. premiere on AMC as usual, the series will likely continue to appear in this country on Amazon Prime Video. You can currently watch the first two seasons of “The Terror” there. However, you will have to accept an additional charge.
Season 3 ‘The Terror’ is based on the 2013 novel of the same name by Victor LaValle. The story focuses on Pepper, a working-class man who is wrongly admitted to the New Hyde psychiatric hospital. Behind the walls of the facility, people that society would rather forget gather. Pepper not only has to deal with the patients, but also discovers that the doctors are keeping dark secrets and may even be connected to the devil.
If you follow the novel, the third season will again clearly show that the greatest danger does not come from the (possible) supernatural, but that the worst demons still lurk within the people themselves. To stage this, the services of “Jennifer’s Body” and “Yellowjackets” director Karyn Kusama have been secured, who will direct the first two episodes. It is not yet known who will be seen in front of the camera.
