‘80s Satanic Panic hits New York Comic Con 2024. The upcoming Peacock series Hysteria! will hit the convention just ahead of its premiere for a special first-look and panel.

In Hysteria!, a beloved varsity quarterback disappears during the “Satanic Panic” of the late 1980s. A struggling high school heavy metal band of outcasts realize they can capitalize on the town’s sudden interest in the occult by building a reputation as a Satanic metal band, until a bizarre series of murders, kidnappings, and reported “supernatural activity” triggers a leather-studded witch hunt that leads directly back to them.

The pop-horror thriller series comes from showrunners and executive producers Matthew Scott Kane and David A. Goodman. It premieres on Peacock October 18. Ahead of that premiere, the show will hit NYCC. Check out the panel details below.
