Just in time for the spooky season, AMC Networks has cast a spell on fans with the release of an enthralling new trailer for the second season of Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches, as mentioned by their official press release. The series, starring Alexandra Daddario (Baywatch, San Andreas, White Collar), Jack Huston (Ban-Hur, Above Suspicion, Outlander), Harry Hamlin (L.A Law, Making Love, 80 For Baby), Tongayi Chirisa (Mr. Bones, Tree Of Peace, Next Exit), and Alyssa Jirrels (This Is The Year, Under The Lights, Boo Bitch) will return on Sunday, January 5, airing on both AMC and AMC+.

Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches is based on the legendary author’s Lives of the Mayfair Witches series and has garnered attention for its immersive storytelling and compelling characters. According to the press release, in season two, viewers will continue to follow Rowan Mayfair, portrayed by Daddario, as she grapples with the repercussions of giving birth to the demon Lasher, played by Huston.

As mentioned in the press release, the series promises an intense exploration of Rowan’s journey as she seeks to understand the true nature of Lasher — whether he is human, a monster or perhaps something else entirely. Rowan’s character, a healer at heart, hopes to harness Lasher’s power for a greater purpose. However, when a devastating tragedy strikes, Rowan must cast aside her personal goals and rise to defend her family.

The upcoming season also brings back notable cast members, including Ben Feldman (Superstore, As Above, So Below, Population 11), Ted Levine (Monk, Flubber, Shutter Island) and Thora Birch (Hocus Pocus, Now And Then, Monkey Trouble), with an ensemble that continues to expand the rich, dark world of the Mayfair family and their supernatural legacy. Fans can expect more mystery, magic and the high stakes that have defined Anne Rice’s (Exit To Eden, The Young Messiah, Queen Of The Damned) universe.

The series boasts an impressive roster of executive producers, including Mark Johnson (Rain Man, Breath, The Notebook), showrunner Esta Spalding (In God’s Country, Falling Angels, Saint Jude), Tom Williams (Kilo Two Bravo, Chalet Girl), Michelle Ashford (Cat Person, Masters Of Sex, New York News), Christopher Rice (A Density Of Souls, Bone Music, Sapphire Sunset) and the late Anne Rice.”

With its haunting narrative and the emotional depth of its characters, Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches season two is set to captivate audiences once again. As fans eagerly await the January premiere, this trailer teases an unforgettable journey into the heart of darkness, family secrets and the enduring question of what it means to be truly human — or something more.
