Watch Next

Brace yourselves fellow Dungeons and Dragons nerds, because Dropout is coming for the jugular with the next season of Dimension 20. Coming hot on the heels of Gladlands, the next adventure will reunite Game Master Brennan Lee Mulligan with intrepid heroes Emily Axford, Ally Beardsley, Brian Murphy, Zac Oyama, Siobhan Thompson, and Lou Wilson for some role-playing in the realm of Vampire: The Masquerade.

According to the press release from Dropout, the new season, titled City Council of Darkness, will focus on "a brood of flamboyant goth vampires exiled from their ancient castle and forced to assimilate into a painfully wholesome small town, where they unexpectedly find themselves running the local government. Between zoning disputes, bloodthirsty urges, and mandatory bake sales, it’s undead chaos in the quaintest hellscape imaginable."

Cheers to the intrepid heroes, who will fill the abyss left by the end of What We Do in the Shadows and the gap before the next season of Interview with the Vampire (aka The Vampire Lestat) with weird, wild bloodsucker fun. This trailer gives a taste of the directions the cast will take their vampires in, with inspirations including superhero movies, Vampire in Brooklyn, Lost Boys, and nunsploitation. ("Whimples on, titties out!")

Welcome to Purpee.

Dimension 20: City Council of Darkness will premiere April 8 on Dropout, with new episodes weekly.
