NEW YORK, APRIL 15, 2026 - Today, AMC+ and Shudder revealed the dark and harrowing trailer and key art for the newest installment of the lauded horror anthology, The Terror: Devil in Silver.

Dan Stevens (Abigail, Downton Abbey), who also serves as executive producer, stars as Pepper - a working-class moving man who, through a combination of bad luck and a bad temper, finds himself wrongfully committed to New Hyde Psychiatric Hospital - an institution filled with those society would rather forget. There, he must contend with patients working against him, doctors harboring grim secrets, and perhaps even the Devil himself. As Pepper navigates a hellscape where nothing is as it seems, he finds that the only path to freedom is to face the entity which thrives on the suffering within New Hyde's walls - but doing so may prove that the worst demons of all live inside him.

Stevens is joined by an award-winning ensemble cast including Judith Light (Before, Out of My Mind), Aasif Mandvi (Evil, This Way Up), Hampton Fluker (Shades of Blue, Instant Family), CCH Pounder (Rustin, NCIS: New Orleans), b (WeCrashed, You), Chinaza Uche (Silo, A Good Person), Stephen Root (Barry, Heads of State), Hayward Leach (Tom Swift, Love Life), John Benjamin Hickey (The Big C, Lilly), Michael Aronov (The Americans, Operation Finale), Philip Ettinger (First Reformed, I Know This Much Is True) and Marin Ireland (Sneaky Pete, Glass Chin).

The Terror: Devil in Silver is executive produced by Ridley Scott, David W. Zucker and Clayton Krueger for Scott Free Productions, Alexandra Milchan for Emjag Productions, Guymon Casady (Entertainment 360), and Brooke Kennedy, alongside series showrunners Cantwell and LaValle, director Kusama and Stevens.

Previous seasons of The Terror focused on a British naval expedition stuck in the ice while searching for the Northwest Passage and haunting events in a Japanese internment camp during World War II. The original series became one of AMC+'s most watched library titles following its addition to the service in 2023. Both seasons are currently streaming on AMC+ and Shudder.
