Yep, perfect for Hallowe&#8217;en!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 6-part series is produced by Hartswood Films, best known for <em>Sherlock<\/em> and <em>Dracula<\/em>, with former <em>Doctor Who<\/em> showrunner, Steven Moffat, acting as producer alongside his wife, Sue Vertue. Capaldi plays Gideon, a recluse with a murderous obsession and who naturally becomes the focus of a police manhunt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Written by Tom Moran, here&#8217;s the synopsis for <em>The Devil&#8217;s Hour<\/em>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>Lucy Chambers (Jessica Raine) wakes up every night at 3:33am. Her mother speaks to empty chairs, her son is emotionally sterile, and her house is haunted by echoes of a life that isn\u2019t her own. Nothing has made sense for a long time. But the answers are out there, somewhere, at the end of a trail of brutal murders.&nbsp;<em>The Devil\u2019s Hour<\/em> is a psychological thriller that seeks to explain the inexplicable.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Obviously, Raine, too, has a connection to <em>Doctor Who<\/em>, having appeared in <em>Hide<\/em> and played Verity Lambert in the 50th anniversary celebratory biopic, <em>An Adventure in Space and Time<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The show also stars <em>The Hungry Earth\/ Cold Blood<\/em>&#8216;s Meera Syal, Nikesh Patel (<em>Resolution<\/em>), and Ramanique Ahluwalia (<em>Vera<\/em>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Amazon has also released this chilling trailer&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Devil&#039;s Hour | Official Teaser | Prime Video\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OGqsvGl05B8?start=1&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;
