Last night the first episode of Penny Dreadful was shown. The ads for the show call it a " frightening psychological thriller that weaves together ... classic horror origin stories into a new adult drama." The characters include Dr. Victor Frankenstein, Dorian Gray, Vanessa Ives, Brona Croft, Frankenstein's creation, American adventurer Ethan Chandler, and Sir Malcolm Murray, who is seeking is missing daughter Mina. They venture into the depths of Victorian London and have encounters with vampires and monsters of all sorts. It is a little bit bloody for my taste, but I've seen worse on DaVinci's Demons. Not recommended for small children, but if you like scary things with really odd twists, you'll like Penny Dreadful on Showtime.
