The premise
Forever Knight is a Canadian television series about Nick Knight, an 800-year-old vampire working as a police detective in modern day Toronto. Wracked with guilt for centuries of killing others, he seeks redemption by working as a homicide detective on the night shift while struggling to find a way to become human again. The series premiered on May 5, 1992 and concluded with the third season finale on May 17, 1996.
Horror Vault's take
Nick Knight has walked the earth for eight centuries, carrying the blood of countless victims on his hands — but now he patrols Toronto's mean streets as a homicide detective, using his supernatural gifts to solve the crimes of the living. Haunted by his past and desperate to reclaim his mortality, he navigates a dangerous double life between the human world and the vampire underworld. Forever Knight is a brooding, noir-tinged series that asks whether a monster can ever truly atone for what he has done.
