Castle Rock is set in King’s fictional town, and is described as a psychological horror series which “combines the mythological scale and intimate character storytelling of King’s best-loved works, weaving an epic saga of darkness and light, played out on a few square miles of Maine woodland.”
Castle Rock is slated to premiere on Hulu later this year.
