Satanic Panic (2026)

A sleepy 1980s town is stalked by a masked slasher at the height of the Satanic Panic, where every heavy metal record, Dungeons & Dragons campaign and teenage outsider is treated as evidence of devil worship. As fear spreads and bodies pile up, three local misfits become the prime suspects in a series of gruesome murders. Join D&D geeks and Ozzy enthusiasts Naz, Sal, and Terry as they race to clear their names, survive an increasingly blood-soaked town and unmask the real killer before paranoia claims more innocent lives. But in a community eager to blame the weird kids, proving their innocence may be deadlier than facing the murderer. From Ringo Award and GLAAD Media Award-winning writer Matt Miner (Poser, Young Men in Love, Critical Role: Vox Machina Origins) and artist Clayton McCormack (Batman: White Knight Presents – Generation Joker) comes a brutal new horror series that blends slasher terror and the paranoia of the Satanic Panic into one unforgettable nightmare.

With another gruesome murder turning the town against them, Sal, Naz, and Terry realize no one is coming to their rescue. If they want to clear their names and survive, they’ll have to find the killer themselves. But when a trip to the county fair becomes the scene of the killer’s bloodiest attack yet, suspicion begins to fall on someone much closer to home. And as religious hysteria reaches a boiling point, the three friends are about to discover that being blamed for murder might be the least of their problems.
