The first season of Hulu's Castle Rock expertly brought the spooky genius of Stephen King to TV, and from the look of Season 2's teaser there's way more of that to come from the anthology series.

The teaser introduces Lizzy Caplan playing Annie Wilkes, better known as the eventual obsessive antagonist of King's 1987 novel Misery, and also weaves in a surprising second location any fan would recognize — the doomed town of Jerusalem's Lot.

Castle Rock Season 2 premieres on October 23.
