Showtime’s Penny Dreadful Gets a Trailer

There’s been lots of buzz surrounding the new Showtime show Penny Dreadful for quite awhile now (pitched to multiple channels over the years), but finally we have a trailer and it’s looking to be creepy!

Some of literature’s most famously terrifying characters, including Dr. Frankenstein and his creature, Dorian Gray and iconic figures from the novel Dracula, become embroiled in Victorian London.

 

 

The series was created by Oscar nominee John Logan (Any Given Sunday, Skyfall) and the cast boasts some pretty big names, including Timothy Dalton, Reeve Carney, Josh Hartnett, Harry Treadaway, Rory Kinnear, Billie Piper, and Eva Green, with the first two episodes helmed by The Orphanage director Juan Antonio Bayona.

Catch it on Showtime, May 11th!
