Bruce Campbell is no stranger to the realm of demons thanks to the Evil Dead franchise, but what about Satanic Panic? Variety reports that the horror stalwart is the next to join Peacock’s straight-to-series coming-of-age thriller Hysteria!

Campbell joins previously announced cast members Julie Bowen, Anna Camp, Emjay Anthony, Chiara Aurelia, Kezii Curtis, and Nikki Hahn

If that’s not enough, Kong: Skull Island director Jordan Vogt-Roberts will helm the premiere episode!

About the series: “When a beloved varsity quarterback disappears during the “Satanic Panic” of the late 1980s, a struggling high school heavy metal band of outcasts realize they can capitalize on the town’s sudden interest in the occult by building a reputation as a Satanic metal band, until a bizarre series of murders, kidnappings, and reported “supernatural activity” triggers a leather-studded witch hunt that leads directly back to them.”

Bruce Campbell will play Chief Dandridge, described as “a small-town police chief whose understanding of his community is put to the test after a disturbing series of murders, disappearances, and unexplained phenomena.”

It’ll be exciting to see Campbell make the switch from bumbling hero to a small town police chief.

The series will be produced by UCP, a division of Universal Studio Group. Matthew Scott Kane serves as writer and executive producer. John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein (Dungeons & Dragons, Game Night) will executive produce and direct. Chris Bender and Jake Weiner (Under the Silver Lake)will executive produce for Good Fear. 

“This nail-biting thriller dives into a mass moral panic and all the fears, desires, anger, and dread that led to these dark days,” said Beatrice Springborn, President, UCP, previously. “Matthew’s script is original, intriguing and perfectly captures the frenetic energy of the Satanic Panic. We can’t wait for audiences to experience the show on Peacock.”

Stay tuned for more on “Hysteria!” In the mean time, you can check out Evil Dead Rise, executive produced by Bruce Campbell, in theaters now.
