British-American horror-drama television series "Penny Dreadful" returns for season 2. Release date set for 2015, and cast updates have surfaced online, exciting fans even more.

Another one in the "American Horror Story" genre, "Penny Dreadful" is based on the 19th century British fiction publications that highlight explicit serial-crime stories. Stories involve popular characters such as Mina Harker, Abraham Van Helsing, Dorian Gray, and Victor Frankenstein and his monster.

The cast upon the "Penny Dreadful" season 2 release date remains the same: Reeve Carney, Timothy Dalton, Eva Green, Rory Kinnear, Billie Piper, Danny Sapani, Harry Treadaway, Josh Hartnett, Simon Russell Beale, and Helen McCrory.

As a result of high ratings such as Rotten Tomatoes' "Certified Fresh" stamp with a 79% review, the eight-episode season 1 is sure to continue on another season. By June, a month after the first season premier, "Penny Dreadful" season 2 release date has been set, confirming a second installment containing 10 episodes of British-American horror.

Tony Award Winner and Screenwriter John Logan will join the cast upon the "Penny Dreadful" season 2 release date. During Comic-Con, he shares about the upcoming season and its brand new horrific antics: "The cosmology, the theology of the show gets much larger - they're thrown into a much more threatening supernatural world. [Season 1 focus was to] Build a family and bring them together - the joy of writing the second season is building on those relationships in different patterns."

In the "Penny Dreadful" season 2 release date, Ethan Chandler played by Josh Hartnett finds himself more than human - a werewolf to be specific. In season 2, he deals with the changes that come with being a superhuman.

Upon the "Penny Dreadful" season 2 release date, audiences will also be introduced to a new character who will be from the Dracula origin story.
