A comedy series based on Grady Hendrix's 2021 bestselling novel The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires has landed at HBO, with the author writing alongside Danny McBride and Edi Patterson (The Righteous Gemstones). Deadline reported that the project "was previously in development at Amazon with Patrick Moran's PKM Productions but has now moved to the Warner Bros. Discovery premium network without Moran's involvement."
Hendrix, McBride, and Patterson will executive produce, alongside Brandon James for McBride's Rough House Pictures. Quirk Books, which published the novel, will have an exec producer credit as well.
