The promotional push has begun for the FX TV series based on Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan’s vampire trilogy,  The Strain, (HarperCollins/Morrow, 2009).

A creepy, Blair Witch type teaser appeared in the mid-season finale of The Walking Dead, a couple of set photos are featured on Yahoo TV and the tie-in cover, based on the poster, has been released (see above, right, next to the original cover).

The lead, Dr. Ephraim Goodweather is played by Corey Stoll, who was a character in the Netflix original series, House of Cards (minus the hair). The series is set to begin in July, but no specific date has been released.
