In a mysterious and horrifying atmosphere, the series presents a number of exciting stories that written by Stephen King, an American author. In the first season the series highlights on the life of a lawyer called Henry Deaver who has a dark past in his hometown, Castle Rock. After receiving an unknown-source call, Deaver has to go there, remembering his old past.
It's as if the flames of Hell have been slowly escaping from that iron cage along with the potentially supernatural being, allowing ashes to fall from the sky thanks to the forest fire.
The implication, via a smart script from Lila Byock, the dreamy direction of Andrew Bernstein and the inclusion of real-life, ripped-from-the-headlines horror... is clear: Everyone did grow up in the worst place in the world.
Castle Rock's most plot-heavy episode is also its best so far. As the mystery deepens, so do the characters that inhabit this fascinating world set in the Stephen King universe.
