COVID-19 may have lasted for what feels like an eternity, but vampirism is forever. Fans of FX’s hit show “What We Do In The Shadows” may rejoice now: after an extended wait thanks to the now dwindling pandemic, an all-new season of their favorite vampires from Staten Island hits the network this Fall.
The FX show takes the mockumentary format of the 2014 cult-favorite movie by Jermaine Clement and Taika Waititi and revamps it to an episodic format. The show follows four centuries-old vampires on Staten Island as they navigate the perils of being a bloodsucker in modern society. Along the way, they must deal with their familiar, Guillermo, and the other supernatural beings in their midst.

Guillermo saved Nandor, Laszlo, Nadja, and Colin from a trap set for them by the Vampire Council in the previous season finale. Unfortunately, Guillermo revealed his status as a vampire killer in the process, so it’s likely that the show will pick up on the fallout from that big reveal. On top of that, the group also encounters a new power: the vampire from which all other vampires descended.
