Originally, The Terror was a 2007 historical fiction horror novel by Dan Simmons, a prolific author with a fascinating and diverse history in the genre.
Season 2 had its own story, independent of anything that came before it, and audiences didn’t share the same enthusiasm, despite generally good ratings on Rotten Tomatoes.
Now, Season 3 is about to launch, and like Season 1, The Devil in Silver will be getting another book adaptation. The author this time is Victor LaValle, winner of the Bram Stoker Award, Shirley Jackson Award, and World Fantasy Award.
The Terror series isn’t known for its Hollywood-style jump scares and expensive CG elements, but more of a creepy, claustrophobic feel and a visceral fear of the unseen or unknown.
Season three continues the theme of lurking malevolence in a mental hospital setting.
The question is: Can it recapture the magic of “grounded realism and vague supernatural phenomena” that previous seasons crafted?
What will the third season of the horror film be about?
Specific details of AMC’s announcement remain confidential. But that doesn’t mean AMC doesn’t want us to know anything.
Pepper is the main character, who ends up in an asylum due to a series of unfortunate events (which sounds like an average morning here). Unfortunately, New Hyde Asylum was not a happy, safe place for poor Pepper.
The name of the hospital itself is interesting, suggesting a transformation of sorts─Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, anyone?
AMC’s written preview also hints at something darker, echoing the season’s title with hints of the devil himself.
Only secluded mental hospitals can shelter doctors with dark secrets, patients with vicious and twisted minds, and demons.
AMC’s synopsis conjures up images of nurses pretending to be bubbly, smiling broadly and holding scissors in their hands.
AMC didn’t elaborate further, other than to suggest that some of the evil Pepper will experience may come from himself.
Who will star in The Terror: The Devil in Silver?
Dan Stevens will play Pepper. Stevens is known for his roles in 2014’s The Guest, 2017’s The Beast, and Marvel’s Legion, but he’s probably best known for playing Matthew Kerr on Downton Abbey. Lawley.
The supporting cast is also in place.
- Judith Wright (Glory Valley)
- Chinaza Uche (Dickinson)
- John Benjamin Hickey (The Big C)
- CCH Hammer (Shield)
- Asif Mandvi (evil)
- Stephen Root (played by Barry)
- Hampton Fluker (shades of blue)
- Michael Aronoff (American)
- Philip Ettinger (First Reformed Church)
- Marin Ireland (reasonable: original city)
- Hayward Leach (played by Tom Swift)
I’m so excited to be a part of Terror: The Demon in Silver. The show is a dark symphony of psychological horror and gripping drama that is sure to shock audiences.
——Dan Stevens
The Devil in Silver isn’t too different from Steven’s previous work, and his role in Marvel’s Legion also landed him in a mental institution.
Dan seems to enjoy this kind of character, even though it’s undoubtedly darker than Marvel’s vision.
What is the release date?
Currently, there is no release date, other than a 2025 release date.
How many episodes does “The Terror: The Devil in Silver” have?
Season 3 of The Terror will have six episodes, a far cry from the ten episodes of Seasons 2 and 1.
However, as costs rise and streaming platforms adjust their strategies, six-episode seasons will soon become the rule rather than the exception.
Hopefully six episodes will be enough to bring Victor LaValle’s vision to life. If they can capture LaValle’s compelling dark atmosphere and fear, season three will be a success.
The crew behind The Horror Season 3
Not only does Dan Stevens star, but he also stars alongside Chris Cantwell (Stop and Set Fire), Victor Lavelle (author), David Zucker, Scott Lambert, Alexander Della Milchan, Guymon Cassady, Kalin Kusama and Ridley serve as executive producers alongside Scott.
Scott Free Productions and Emjag Productions are the two production companies involved in the third season.

Emjag Productions has a smaller pedigree, with The Terror Season 2 and The Silence being the most notable on the roster.
