Based on the novel of the same name by Matt Ruff, the series follows Atticus Freeman as he journeys with his childhood friend Letitia and his uncle George on a road trip from Chicago across 1950s Jim Crow America in search of his missing father Montrose. Their search-and-rescue turns into a struggle to survive and overcome both the racist terrors of white America and monstrous creatures that could be ripped from an H.P. Lovecraft paperback. Smollett and Green give their insight into the genre-bending show; the creative challenges of making a paranormal horror story in the midst of real-world crises; stories from behind the scenes; and much more.
