Penny Dreadful is a real masterpiece! A thriller series where, in a gothic and dark London, the paranormal meets and intertwines in the lives of some of the most terrifying characters of literature, keeping the viewer glued to the screen, sometimes even against his will.
The series takes its name and inspiration from the "penny dreadful" short horror novels distributed weekly at low prices to the London bourgeoisie of the nineteenth century. Products of dubious literary taste, but which gave birth to some scary characters such as vampires or Sweeney Todd.
An unrivaled Eva Green, who in 2016 won a Golden Globe for the role, in the role of Vanessa Ives is engaged in a constant search and fight against vampires, witches, immortal beasts and evil spirits. Accompanying her is Sir Malcolm Murray, father of a childhood friend, Ethan Chandler, an American with great skill with firearms, Abraham Van Helsing, Doctor Victor Frankenstein, busy bringing dead bodies to life, and a controversial Dorian Gray.
Vanessa has a special task: to fight against evil and make sure that it does not take possession of her. She prays day and night but she can't do it alone. So here comes he, the LUPUS DEI, the one who will help her stay in the light. But will the divine messenger be able to help her?
