AMC announced today that Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches has been picked up for a third season. The renewal comes a month after the drama wrapped its 8-episode sophomore run. Season 3 will dive deeper into the mythology of witchcraft, introduce new 'spellbound' families, and feature some of the historical happenings of Salem, Massachusetts, the infamous town of witch trials and folklore.

"The drama and complexities of the Mayfair family continue to be an intriguing and enchanting source of story, and expanding that story against the backdrop of Salem, a historical haven of witchcraft, is an exciting next chapter for this series and our larger Anne Rice Immortal Universe," said Dan McDermott, president of entertainment and AMC Studios for AMC Networks. "Tom Schnauz has a storied history with AMC, and we're elated to have him join the talented Esta Spalding and our Mayfair cast for a season that will explore a larger world of witchery and Mayfair family secrets as we continue to build out this dynamic franchise."

Based on Anne Rice's 'Lives of the Mayfair Witches,' the series follows Dr. Rowan Fielding, a brilliant young neurosurgeon who discovers that she is the unlikely heiress to a dynasty of powerful witches. As she comes to terms with her newfound powers, she must contend with a sinister presence that has haunted her family for generations.
