After a great deal of speculation that Hemlock Grove would be renewed for a second season, Netflx has now made it official. The company announced that it will move forward on another season. This second season, however, will be shorter than the first.

The show has picked up “seasoned showrunner” Charles H. (Chic Eglee) of The Walking Dead, Dexter and The Shield fame as an executive producer.

Executive Producer Eli Roth says, “The worldwide fan response to ‘Hemlock Grove’ was phenomenal. Netflix members loved the potent combination of sexy monsters, mystery, and the dark family soap opera that ended with a huge twist, leaving audiences worldwide totally shocked. Season One was just a warm up for what we have in store for season two. Get ready to be scared in ways you never expected.”

“We are thrilled to be working with Netflix on the second season of ‘Hemlock Grove’, a show that the audience has enthusiastically embraced,” commented Katie O’Connell, CEO of Gaumont International Television.

The second season will be released sometime next year. There will be ten episodes. Whether it will continue from there is anybody’s guess.
