The cult horror franchise The Evil Dead is coming back this Halloween. A sequel series, Ash vs. Evil Dead, will premiere on Starz on October 31, reports Deadline. The series takes places 30 years after the hell-raising events that transpired between five friends in a log cabin in the 1981 original, Evil Dead

Bruce Campbell, who starred in the original and the 2013 reboot, will reprise his role as Ash in the new series. From Deadline:

None

Lucy Lawless will also appear in the series, playing Ruby, a mysterious character who wants to bring an end to the evil dead outbreaks as much as Ash does. At a panel at Comic-Con tonight, she called the show "scary and ... funny, and not at the same time."
