‘What We Do in the Shadows’ Season 3 Preview
When we last saw the vamps of this mockumentary comedy horror series, familiar Guillermo (Harvey Guillen) took off and the vampires were lost without him. But the group did get invited to the prestigious vampire event Nouveau Theatre des Vampires, which they attended, not realizing it was a trap set by the Vampire Council. Nadia (Natasia Demetriou), Laszlo (Matt Berry), Nandor (Kayvan Novak), and Colin (Mark Proksch) were sentenced to death, but Guillermo rode to the rescue just in the nick of time, killing dozens of vampires. But he showed his true nature as a vampire hunter in the process.
Now when the show, which is from the minds of Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi, returns for its third season, “we find the housemates in a panic about what to do with Guillermo after discovering that he is a vampire killer,” according to the FX press release.
It continues:
This season, the vampires are elevated to a new level of power and will encounter the vampire from which all vampires have descended, a tempting Siren, gargoyles, werewolf kickball, Atlantic City casinos, wellness cults, ex-girlfriends, gyms and supernatural curiosities galore. Plus, Colin Robinson is turning 100. And Nandor, faced with his own eternal-life crisis, tries to inject his life with more meaning. Will he find love or is he destined to be an immortal bachelor with 37 ex-wives?
The premiere features back to back episodes. The first is titled “The Prisoner” and its description reads, “Guillermo’s fate hangs in the balance as the vampires receive a promotion.”
The second is titled “The Cloak of Duplication” and its description teases, “A forbidden artifact is used to help Nandor court a health club employee.”
Then on September 9 comes the third episode, titled “Gail.” Its description reads, “An old flame returns and an ancient vehicle is resurrected.”
On September 16 comes “The Casino,” in which “the vampires embark on a road trip from which they may never return,” and on September 23 comes “The Chamber of Judgment.” Its description reads, “Justice is served, both vampirically and also in small claims court.”
The popular horror-comedy series has already been renewed for a fourth season ahead of its season three premiere.
“What We Do In the Shadows” season three airs Thursdays at 10 p.m. Eastern and Pacific times on FX.
