Chapelwaite Season 2 Plans Canceled at Epix

Epix’s Stephen King Series Chapelwaite Season 2 in the Works

February 3, 2022

EPIX has confirmed that the second season of Donald De Line’s horror drama Chapelwaite is officially in development. This comes after three months since the Adrien Brody-led first season concluded its 10-episode run. The series is based on Stephen King’s iconic short story Jerusalem’s Lot.

“The second season continues as a terrifying re-imagining of the classic gothic horror that chronicles one family’s battle with an ancient and persistent evil. We will learn that the Boone curse didn’t die with Jakub, and despite Charles’s selfless act at the end of season one, De Vermis Mysteriis remains as powerful as ever, and as alluring to a new generation of vampires,” reads the synopsis.

The series is executive produced by Donald De Line (Ready Player One, Wayward Pines), and creators Jason Filardi and Peter Filardi. It is produced by EPIX Studios.

Set in the 1850s, Chapelwaite Season 1 was set in the 1850s where it followed the story of Captain Charles Boone (Brody), who relocates his family of three children to his ancestral home in the small, seemingly sleepy town of Preacher’s Corners, Maine after his wife dies at sea. However, Charles will soon have to confront the secrets of his family’s sordid history and fight to end the darkness that has plagued the Boones for generations.

Season 1 starred Adrien Brody as Charles Boone and Emily Hampshire as Rebecca Morgan. The Oscar-winning actor also served as an executive producer.
