AMC+ and Shudder will premiere The Terror: Devil in Silver on Thursday, May 7, with new episodes released weekly. The six-episode limited series continues the acclaimed anthology The Terror, with the season based on a novel by Victor LaValle (The Changeling).
Executive producers include Ridley Scott, while Chris Cantwell (Halt and Catch Fire) and LaValle serve as showrunners. Karyn Kusama (Yellowjackets) directs the first two episodes. The series is also expected to air on AMC later this year.
Dan Stevens (Downton Abbey) leads the cast as Pepper, a working-class mover who is wrongfully committed to New Hyde Psychiatric Hospital. Inside the institution, Pepper faces hostile patients, unsettling doctors, and a growing sense that something far more dangerous may be at work. As he searches for a way out, he is forced to confront an entity tied to the suffering within the hospital, along with his own inner fears.

“Working shoulder to shoulder with Victor LaValle to bring his masterful novel to the screen has been an incredible experience, as his story is, yes—packed with death and horror—but also brimming with beauty and the flickering-yet-unassailable light of our fragile humanity,” said Cantwell. “Our writing team expanded and enriched Victor’s pulse-pounding and profound themes, Karyn Kusama brought a brilliant cinematic eye to this very real, very frightening world, and we did it all under the accomplished, hallowed banner of Scott Free with a top-tier crew.”
AMC Networks executive Courtney Thomasma added, “The Terror: Devil in Silver represents everything we love about this anthology – a compelling real-life setting with a veil of supernatural dread, dynamic characters brought to life through powerhouse performances, and a suspenseful, emotionally gripping story that stays with you long after the credits roll."
Previous seasons of The Terror focused on a doomed Arctic expedition and events tied to a World War II internment camp. Both seasons gained renewed attention after joining AMC+ in 2023, helping grow the series’ audience ahead of this new installment.
