Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches, or simply Mayfair Witches, is an American supernatural thriller drama television series created by Esta Spalding and Michelle Ashford, based on the novel trilogy Lives of the Mayfair Witches by Anne Rice. The series stars Alexandra Daddario as Dr. Rowan Fielding, Harry Hamlin as Cortland Mayfair, Tongayi Chirisa as Ciprien Grieve and Jack Huston as Lasher. It premiered on AMC on January 8, 2023, and will be the second television series in Rice's Immortal Universe, following Interview with the Vampire. (wiki)

The series will focus on an intuitive young neurosurgeon (Alexandra Daddario) who discovers that she is the unlikely heir to a family of witches. As she grapples with her newfound powers, she must contend with a sinister presence (Jack Huston) that has haunted her family for generations.
Fair Warning: The TV series is charting its own version. If you read the books and were hoping for an adaption this is not your series.
That being said to me this feels like the other series that have been showing up as webseries. A cash grab in hopes to bring in fans. Back when the books came out (The Witching Hour (1990) Lasher (1993) and Taltos (1994)) I read them, so part of my brain is remembering the books while watching the series trying to override my brain into giving the show a chance. I am curious to hear what others think of the series.
