Horror movie mogul James Wan swaps the big screen for streaming, bringing his new series Teacup to Peacock this Halloween

Three kids sit around a table with candles and torches .

The Conjuring (2013), Saw (2004) and Insidious (2010) have solidified director James Wan's status as a horror movie mogul, and in the build up to spooky season he’s switching out the big screen for the best streaming services with the arrival of his new Peacock original horror series Teacup.

Inspired by the narrative of Robert McCammon’s 1988 novel Stinger, the series hones in on the small-town horror genre and will arrive on Peacock October 10, with two episodes releasing weekly through to Halloween. In addition to show creator and writer Ian McCulloch, Wan has executive produced the show under his Atomic Monster production company, joining forces with fellow horror directors E.L. Katz (The Haunting of Bly Manor), John Hyams (Chucky), and Chloe Okuno (Watcher), along with Kevin Tancharoen (The Brothers Sun).
