Teacup S1

Trapped on a farm in rural Georgia, a group of neighbours must put aside their differences and unite in the face of a mysterious and deadly threat.

Teacup’s cast includes Emmy nominee Yvonne Strahovski (The Handmaid’s Tale), Teen Choice nominee Scott Speedman (Animal Kingdom, Underworld), BAFTA nominee Chaske Spencer (The English, The Twilight Saga) and Emmy winner Kathy Baker (Picket Fences, Edward Scissorhands).

From horror-movie mastermind James Wan (Saw, The Conjuring), Teacup is inspired by Robert McCammon's bestselling novel, Stinger.

Teacup was named the fourth best horror series of 2024 by Rotten Tomatoes, where the critics’ consensus calls it “stylish and genuinely scary.”

The eight-part series was nominated for Best Horror Series at this year’s Saturn Awards, as voted by the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Films
