The premise
A continuation of the anthology series “Alfred Hitchcock Presents”, hosted by the master of suspense and featuring thrillers and mysteries.
Horror Vault's take
Extending the legacy of Alfred Hitchcock Presents, this anthology series delivers a parade of self-contained tales steeped in murder, manipulation, and the shadowy corners of the human psyche. Each episode is introduced by the iconic Hitchcock himself, whose sardonic wit frames stories where ordinary people find themselves entangled in extraordinary — and often deadly — circumstances. With a runtime longer than its predecessor, the series has room to let dread build slowly and characters unravel completely.
