‘The Terror: Devil in Silver’: AMC+ and Shudder Share First-Look at Series Return

AMC+ and Shudder will premiere The Terror: Devil in Silver, a new installment of the acclaimed horror anthology The Terror, on Thursday, May 7, with new episodes rolling out weekly, Dread Central learned this morning.

Dan Stevens (Abigail, The Guest) stars as Pepper — a working-class moving man who, through a combination of bad luck and a bad temper, finds himself wrongfully committed to New Hyde Psychiatric Hospital, an institution filled with those society would rather forget. There, he must contend with patients working against him, doctors harboring grim secrets, and perhaps even the Devil himself. As Pepper navigates a hellscape where nothing is as it seems, he finds that the only path to freedom is to face the entity that thrives on the suffering within New Hyde’s walls — but doing so may prove that the worst demons of all live inside him.

We have the first images from the series, shared below.

In addition to Stevens, the series stars Judith Light (Before, Out of My Mind), CCH Pounder (Rustin, NCIS: New Orleans), Aasif Mandvi (Evil, This Way Up), John Benjamin Hickey (The Big C, Lilly), Stephen Root (Barry, Heads of State), Michael Aronov (The Americans, Operation Finale), Marin Ireland (Sneaky Pete, Glass Chin), Chinaza Uche (Silo, A Good Person), Hampton Fluker (Shades of Blue, Instant Family), b (WeCrashed, You), Hayward Leach (Tom Swift, Love Life), and Philip Ettinger (First Reformed, I Know This Much Is True).
