Series Premiere
The series will premiere on the horror-focused Shudder streaming service on September 26th. The first season will have an encore run on AMC starting on May 4th at 10 PM EST.
Status
The streaming services do not usually share their viewership numbers, but they also tend to give their shows at least a couple of seasons to prove themselves. This looks like a notable entry to Shudder’s originals and could stick around for a second season and possibly more. You can keep up with further status updates during the season at the show’s page on this site.
