The second season of “The Shivering Truth” premieres on Sunday, May 10 at midnight on Adult Swim, and the just-released trailer is, as expected, a surrealistic fever dream nightmare.
What we didn’t expect, however, was that the trailer would be set to a memorable track from Disasterpiece’s incredible score for It Follows. Preview the new batch of nightmares below!
In “The Shivering Truth,” described as a delicately crafted, darkly surreal anthology comedy, “Each episode is a miniature propulsive omnibus cluster bomb of painfully riotous daymares all dripping with the orange goo of dream logic. A series of loosely linked emotional parables about stories within tales that crawled out of the deepest caverns of your unconscious mind and became lovingly animated in breath-slapping stop motion — in other words, it is the TRUTH (squared).” The quarter-hour series is directed by Vernon Chatman and Cat Solen.
This season features the voices of Kate Berlant, Mike Birbiglia, Wyatt Cenac, Julia Davis, Chris Elliott, Will Forte, Josh Gad, Miranda July, Jason Mantzoukas, Kyle Mooney, Griffin Newman, Ego Nwodim, Alia Shawkat, and Tierra Whack, along with show creator and writer, Vernon Chatman. The animation studio behind the series is HouseSpecial.
