Chapelwaite is a gothic and thriller show which was airing on EPIX cable channel with its season 1. Fans had mixed reactions about the show not because of its horror genre but because of the storyline. Eventually, this all depends on the perspective you carry as there have been many series liked by one and disliked by others.
And now the question which fans have in their mind is that will there be another season knocking at the doors. To know what might be the decision, it is relevant to move on through this article.
What About the Following Season?
Chapelwaite is a TV show which is an adaptation of the famous short story Jerusalem’s Lot by Stephen King, which EPIX exclusively owns. Now fans have been curious whether there will be any continuation to the story. But as of now, there is no official confirmation on that. Besides this, there is nearly no chance of a second coming out, and it is because the show is based on a short story that cannot be elaborated more than the ten episodes that were aired earlier.
What is Story Going to?
The plot moves in such a manner as there is a family including Captain Charles Boone as the father of three children named Honor, Loa, and Tane. They relocate from the town to a new place which is Preachers Corner. But to their misfortune, the dark secrets of the family keep haunting them everywhere they go. The story is set in the times of 1850s which is reflected through the dressing style of the characters in the show.
Rebecca Morgan is a passionate writer who lives next door to this family and somehow becomes interested in the family’s gothic life. This becomes an inspiration for her writing which enables her to write a novel. So with the plot moving forward, fans witness many dark and horrific truths being revealed.
How Much is it Liked?
This show is written by Peter Filardi and Jason Filardi as with an exceptional storyline adapted from King’s Novel. The show grabbed a 7.5 rating on IMDB with 62 percent of its ratings on rotten tomatoes. Besides this, the cast consists of Adrien Brody as Captain Charles Boone, Jennifer Ens as Honor Boone, Emily Hampshire as Rebecca Morgan, Sirena Gulamgaus as Loa Boone, Eric Peterson as Samuel Gallup, and Ian Ho as Tane Boone.
What Do Critics have to Say?
Chapelwaite first aired on August 22, 2021, with its fifth episode out on September 12. According to critics’ reviews, it is a perfect combination of mystery and horror. Many thought back when Stephen King’s stories turned to movies or shows were not good enough, but IT and Carrie is one of the most like ones.
So to sum it up, the first season is the only season until we receive any other official update on this one.
on the contrary now that what happened to Boone (I wont spoil it) many things could come as a second season from that. Not to mentioned certain ppl could be reunited as well or even introduce a new character perhaps as well.
I think it has potential for storylines etc for a season 2. And I for one would like to see it come to fruition.
Chapelwaite was excellent I looked forward each week to seeing what was going to happen next. It was well written it kept me looking forward to the next episode. I hope they writer will come up with another season of it.
I hope there’s at least one more season, as there’s two questions that I’d like to know the answers to…first, I don’t understand why the father let his daughter feed in him (and vice versa) just to kill himself by putting himself in a boat & going out to sea, and second, what will Loa now do to feed? Will she talk the remainder of her family into being like her out of desperation? I didn’t like the way it was left if there’s not going to be more to it. Otherwise, it was a good show. Love Andrian Brody and the other actors did a great job.
