Ahead of their panel at San Diego Comic-Con, WGN America has released the Salem season three trailer, which you can check out below. The series will premiere the week of Halloween.
Continuing its bloody, sexy and fantastical reimagining of Colonial America, the cast and producers will unleash an extended sneak peek at the upcoming season during San Diego Comic-Con. Series stars Shane West, Janet Montgomery, Seth Gabel, Iddo Goldberg and Elise Eberle along with executive producers Brannon Braga and Adam Simon will unveil intriguing footage from the series during a moderated discussion followed by an audience Q&A.
The third season of Salem dawns with the triumph of the witches’ plan to remake the New World by bringing the devil to earth and making Salem his capital. But the devil is a liar, and instead of a New World free from murderous Puritan hypocrisy, his own plan will bring nothing but death and slavery with the ultimate aim of leading humanity to destroy itself. And there’s only one person on earth who can beat the devil — the very witch that birthed him, his mother, Mary Sibley. The only problem is—she’s dead. Or is she?
Salem stars Janet Montgomery (Human Target, Made in Jersey) as Mary Sibley, Shane West (Nikita, ER) as Captain John Alden, Seth Gabel (Arrow, Fringe) as Cotton Mather, Ashley Madekwe (Revenge) as Tituba, Tamzin Merchant (Jane Eyre) as Anne Hale, Elise Eberle (The Astronaut Farmer) as Mercy Lewis, Iddo Goldberg (Mob City) as Isaac Walton, Joe Doyle (Raw) as Baron Sebastian Marburg, Oliver Bell (The Saint) as Mary’s son and renowned recording-artist Marilyn Manson guest stars as Thomas Dinley.
