Stephen King has high praise ওfor an upcoming horror series executive-produced by James Wan.

"TEACUP: If you like FROM or LOST, I think you'll ꦰenjoy this. It's strange, creepy, claustrophobic, and scary," King wrote on . "Beware the Gas Mask Man.ജ Short episodes. All killer, no filler. (Peacock--bows October 10th)."

Per the official logline, "On an isolated ranch in rural Georgia, several people are forced together to face a mysterious threat." We can only assume that the mysterious threat is the scary gas mask man in all of the promo♋tional photos.

The cast includes Yvonne Strahovski, Scott Speedman, Chaske Spencer, Kathy Baker, Boris McGiver, Caleb Dolden, Emilie Bierre, and Luciano Leroux. The series was created by Yellowstone producer Ian McCulloch (not to be confused with the lead singer of Echo and the Bunnymen) is loosely based on the 1988 novel Stinger b🧜y Robert R. McCammon. 

The novel "takes place during a single twenty-four hour period in Inferno, Texas. Inferno is a town in trouble, driven to the brink by rac𒐪ial tension, gang violence, and a collapsing economy. But things can always get worse, and they do so with astonishing speed when an unidentified spacecraft crash lands in the desert outside 🦂of town, followed by a second craft bearing the alien being who will soon be known as Stinger." So if we're reading this correctly, the scary gas mask man might very well be an alien. I'm sold.

Teacup hits Peacock on October 10 with all eight episodes in tow. For more, check out our list of the澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询: best new TV shows coming your way in 2024 and beyond.
