A new trailer has appeared online for MTV’s new Scream TV show, introducing an array of characters soon to become knife fodder for the masked maniac terrorising the town of Lakewood.

Co-starring Willa Fitzgerald, Bex Taylor-Klaus and Carlson Young, Scream will debut in the US on MTV on 30 June 2015. A UK air date has yet to be confirmed.
