A Creepy Storm’s a-Brewing in Teacup’s New Trailer

We’re two weeks away from October, and you know what that means: horror time. While Alien: Romulus and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice are cleaning up in theaters, there’s some scary stuff coming to TV, and Peacock’s hoping you’ll tune in for its new show, Teacup.

Created by Ian McCulloch (Yellowstone) and executive produced by Conjuring head James Wan, the series stars Yvonne Strahovski and Scott Speedman as a married couple living on an isolated ranch in rural Georgia. But things are starting to get a little weird: the animals are spooked, their young son goes missing, and after his return, a mysterious man in a gas mask draws a line to cordon off the ranch. And according to the kid, some thing is coming that the ranchers need to defend themselves against. Even worse, if they cross that threshold the masked man makes…well, it seems like bad things are gonna happen.

Teacup is inspired by Robert McCammon’s 1988 novel Stinger, which McCulloch called a “no-holds-barred, gargantuan spectacle of a novel.” At Comic-Con this past July, he explained how Wan’s production company Atomic Monster approached him about adapting Stinger for TV, and despite being more geared toward “large stories told through small lenses” (think Signs and A Quiet Place), the book “wouldn’t leave me alone. I just couldn’t stop thinking about its razor-sharp premise, how it unfolds over the course of a single harrowing day. […] That’s when the flash-bang light-bulb idea hit.”

Also starring Chaske Spencer, Kathy Baker, and Boris McGiver, Peacock will premiere Teacup’s first two episodes on October 10, followed by two episodes per week until it wraps on Halloween.
