The first season tackled covered a variety of themes including serial killers, angels, a ghost in the machine, death angel nurses, and incel culture.
Evil focuses on a skeptical female psychologist (Herbers) who joins a Catholic priest-in-training (Colter) and a contractor (Mandvi) as they investigate the Church's backlog of unexplained mysteries, including supposed miracles, demonic possessions, and hauntings. Their job is to assess if there is a logical explanation or if something truly supernatural is at work. Created by Robert and Michelle King, the series also stars Christine Lahti, Kurt Fuller, Brooklyn Shuck, Skylar Gray, Maddy Crocco, and Dayla Knapp. Liz Glotzer and Rockne S O'Bannon serve as co-executive producers with the Kings. Do you have any predictions as to what happens this second season? Will Kristen, David, and Ben finally decide to get that condo they have been eying? Will Leland grow up to be a real demon?
