Amazon Prime Video has ordered an animated adaptation of Wytches, a six-issue limited comic book series written by Scott Snyder and illustrated by Jock.
Per Variety, Wytches tells the story of "17-year-old Sailor Rooks, whose family moves to a remote New England town after a tragic accident, only to discover that a burrow of monsters - ancient creatures that prey on our darkest fears and desires - lurks beneath the town." Snyder and Jock will executive produce.
"Driven by the pairing of Scott and Jock along with our partners at Plan B and Project 51 Productions, 'Wytches' fuses nail biting horror and evocative drama while unearthing the dark lore surrounding an ancient burrow of witches," said Melissa Wolfe, head of animation for Amazon Studios. "Given the haunting and intimate nature of Scott and Jock’s well regarded comic series, we are looking forward to delivering their creative vision to our global audience and expanding our growing roster of animated series."
