If you have yet to check out Penny Dreadful, then you're missing out on one hell of a Gothic Horror story; the writing is tight, the acting is fantastic, it looks gorgeous, the blood flows freely, it's creepy, and there's an underlying current of emotion that makes it all feel impactful.
We're not happy about the death of a major character at the end of last season, not AT ALL, but I suppose the best part of this show is that it's got so many excellent characters that losing one of them won't kill it, or our enjoyment of it.
We love this new trailer for Season 3 so much that it's got us angry that it isn't May1st yet.
Check it out below.
Season 3 of Penny Dreadful premieres May 1st, on Showtime.
