“Eli Roth’s History of Horror” has been renewed for a second season according to Deadline. The series, which made its debut during the network’s FearFest in 2018, features the iconic horror director and notable personalities from the horror genre as they dissect and provide a retrospective on some of the most notable films in horror.
The first season focused on common horror themes like zombies, slashers, vampires, monsters, and ghosts, while the second six episode season will reportedly focus on topics like witches, evil kids, hell houses, and body horror.
“I’m so thrilled to be continuing this historic series with AMC,” Roth said, “In Season 1, we had the most incredible conversations with the top creators in the field who really helped fans around the world appreciate the horror genre in a new light….we look forward to going even deeper in Season 2, bringing out the A-listers to share their stories with everyone for all-time and adding more and more films to the canon. AMC is the perfect network to partner with on a passion project like this and we can’t wait to get started.”
The second season will air on AMC as well as AMC Networks’ horror streaming service, Shudder.
