No doubt inspired by the popularity of groundbreaking genre show's like
American Horror Story and
The Walking Dead,
ABC brings us
666 Park Avenue, a slice of fantasy horror for mainstream audiences.
They tried and failed earlier this year with the short-lived
The River, so let's hope this spooky attempt doesn't end up languishing in one season hell.
Fortunately this show, about an upscale
Manhattan apartment building and its residents who may be possessed by some demonic force, has veteran stars like
Vanessa Williams and
Terry O'Quinn, plus bright young things like
Rachael Taylor and
Dave Annable to draw in the viewers.
666 Park Avenue is also based on the novel of the same name by
Gabriella Pierce and has been developed for the small screen by
David Wilcox (who has
Fringe, the
U.S. remake of
Life on Mars and even
Law & Order on his resume).
These striking billboards for the new series were snapped around the streets of
New York City on August 28 and in
L.A. on August 31, 2012, including this standard landscape version beside the
High Line elevated park on
Manhattan's West Side.
Daily Billboard likes the spiral staircase design which visually evokes the
666 of the swanky apartment address and the dramatic red implies that this really could be the descent into
Dante's Inferno.
Let's hope the 10pm time slot allows for some scary stuff and things that go bump in the night.
UPDATED: Here's another landscape billboard for the new
ABC show snapped along
Cahuenga Boulevard near
L.A.'s Sunset Boulevard on September 14, 2012.
