Halloween is the culmination of the so-called “Season of the Witch.” So in our estimation, there’s no better time for AMC to drop their newest trailer for the second season of Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches. The first season of the show, based on Anne Rice’s 1990 novel The Witching Hour, was a loose adaptation of that book. It appears, based on the trailer, that season two will start drawing inspiration from the second novel in Rice’s Lives of the Mayfair Witches series, Lasher. This series is set in the same universe as AMC’s Interview with the Vampire. You can watch the new trailer for Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches season two right here:
Here’s the official description from AMC Networks for season two of Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches:
Based on Anne Rice’s Lives of the Mayfair Witches, season two of Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches continues the journey of Rowan Mayfair (Daddario) after she has unwittingly given birth to the demon Lasher (Huston). She is determined to understand what he has become – human or monster? – and to use him to fulfill her purpose as a healer, but when tragedy strikes, she must put aside her own desires and fight to protect her family.
The series stars Alexandra Daddario as Rowan Mayfair, the latest in a long line of powerful witches from New Orleans. The Mayfairs are a magical bloodline that dates back hundreds of years. Jack Huston plays the malevolent (yet sexy) spirit Lasher, who has been tormenting the Mayfairs for several generations. Also in the cast from the first season are Harry Hamlin, Tongayi Chirisa, and Alyssa Jirrels. New cast members for season two of the series include Ben Feldman, Ted Levine, and famous witch-survivor, Thora Birch. The new season of Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches will debut on Sunday, January 5, on AMC+ and AMC.
