John Carpenter is returning this Friday the 13th, with a new Peacock series called John Carpenter’s Suburban Screams. The new anthology series will consist of six episodes, and it will explore “the dark secrets and unspeakable evil that sometimes lurks beneath the surface of the sun-drenched streets, manicured lawns and friendly neighbors of suburbia. Each episode focuses on one true tale of terror, told by the real people who lived through it.”

“Their firsthand accounts are brought to life through premium cinematic scene-work, news clips, home photos, and archival footage, combining the visual language of horror films with the tools and techniques of documentaries, creating a uniquely frightening experience for viewers.

Each episode will delve into the monstrous evil that lurks beneath the surface of friendly suburbia through the lens of one frightful tale. In addition to firsthand accounts, the episodes will include cinematic reenactments, personal archives, and historic town press coverage.”

John Carpenter directs one episode in the six-episode series, which is titled “Phone Stalker.” The other episodes in the series are titled “Kelly“, “A Killer Comes Home“, “House Next Door“, “Bunny Man“, and “Cursed Neighborhood.”
