Salem (2014-2017)

Fictional retelling of the well known events from Salem in the 17th century, in a version in which witchcraft is something real.

An interesting combination of the real events with the fictional story of actual witches that play with the fates of Salem's puritans. The story is complex, well written and the supernatural and horror elements are inventive, frequent and in perfect agreement with the context of the story. Fans of the genre will be delighted.
A welcome bonus is the musical theme composed by Tyler Bates (Californication, Sucker Punch) and Marilyn Manson.
Shane West is known for A Walk To Remember, Seth Gabel for Fringe, Iddo Goldberg was briefly on Peaky Blinders, Xander Berkeley was in many things but more recently The Walking Dead, Stuart Townsend was better known 10 years ago, as the protagonist of The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen and The Queen Of The Damned and Lucy Lawless is none other than Xena.

Creators: Brannon Braga, Adam Simon
Featuring: Janet Montgomery, Shane West, Seth Gabel, Tamzin Merchant, Iddo Goldberg, Lucy Lawless, Ashley Madekwe, Elise Eberle, Xander Berkeley, Stephen Lang, Stuart Townsend
