‘Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches’ Reveals Season 3 Title & Premiere Date

The third season of AMC+’s Mayfair Witches series will premiere this December with a new, or at least expanded, title.

Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches: Salem Coven – the last two words are the new part – will premiere on Wednesday, December 30.

The title and season launch date were unveiled by AMC Global Media at New York Comic Con, where a Main Stage panel Friday included Mayfair stars Alexandra Daddario, Harry Hamlin, Tongayi Chirisa, Betsy Brandt and Eliza Scanlen, as well as Co-Showrunners and Executive Producers Esta Spalding and Tom Schnauz, and Executive Producer Mark Johnson.

Also released was a trailer (watch it above) and some first look images (see them above and below).

Based on the Anne Rice book trilogy Lives of the Mayfair Witches, the AMC+ series was created by Spalding and Michelle Ashford and features Daddario as neurosurgeon Dr. Rowan Fielding who learns she is the heiress to a dynasty of powerful witches haunted by a sinister spirit. Hamlin plays the family patriarch Cortland Mayfair.

In the new clip, Daddario’s Rowan laments, “My whole life has been nothing but pain and death for everyone I love, just to play my part in an ancient prophecy.” But she cautions: “Nothing is set in stone.” Check it out above, and the images below:
