New Promo for Salem Season 3 Rewrites History
With the third season of “Salem” about to kick off on WGN America this Halloween season, we’ve been seeing several promos and teasers being released, and up now is a new video that reminds us of the show’s historical roots. “Salem” Season 3 begins on Wednesday, November 2nd.
About “Salem” Season 3:
The third season of “Salem” dawns with the triumph of the witches’ plan to remake the New World by bringing the devil to earth and making Salem his capital. But the devil is a liar, and instead of a New World free from murderous Puritan hypocrisy, his own plan will bring nothing but death and slavery with the ultimate aim of leading humanity to destroy itself. And there’s only one person on earth who can beat the devil — the very witch that birthed him, his mother, Mary Sibley. The only problem is—she’s dead. Or is she?
“Salem” stars Janet Montgomery as Mary Sibley, Shane West as Captain John Alden, Seth Gabel as Cotton Mather, Ashley Madekwe as Tituba, Tamzin Merchant as Anne Hale, Elise Eberle as Mercy Lewis, Iddo Goldberg as Isaac Walton, Joe Doyle as Baron Sebastian Marburg, and Oliver Bell as Mary’s son. Renowned recording artist Marilyn Manson guest stars as Thomas Dinley; also new this season is Samuel Roukin as The Sentinel.
Created and written by Brannon Braga and Adam Simon, “Salem” is executive produced by Braga, Simon, Kelly Souders, Brian Peterson, and The Firm’s Jeff Kwatinetz and Josh Barry. The series is produced by Fox 21 Television Studios.
