Just in time for Halloween, Apple TV+ is serving up two new teasers of its mysterious new series called Servant.
Created by M. Night Shyamalan, Servant follows a married couple who cope with the loss of their child by buying a therapy doll. Details on the show are being kept under wraps, including Rupert Grint’s enigmatic character Julian Pierce. Judging from the trailers and teasers we’ve seen so far though, a lot of weird stuff is about to go down.

Servant will premiere on Apple TV+ on November 28, just a four weeks after the service launches. Apple hasn’t said whether all the episodes of the series will be available at once or if it will stagger out the release like with The Morning Show.
From the teasers, we can glean that the couple names their therapy doll Jericho. It seems as though the mother, played by Lauren Ambrose (Claire from Six Feet Under), believes Jericho is a real boy. Strange things start happening in the home though when the couple get a nanny. M. Night Shyamalan revealed in a recent interview that the entire series takes place in pretty much one room.
