Cabinet of Curiosities: Watch Trailer for H.P. Lovecraft Episode Pickman’s Model

Netflix is counting down to Halloween with Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities, and an upcoming episode will be an adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft’s short story Pickman’s Model. Just in, we have a trailer hyping up the episode starring Ben Barnes and Crispin Glover.

Watch this:

From Keith Thomas, director of The Vigil, comes PICKMAN’S MODEL, an H.P. Lovecraft tale about an artist (Ben Barnes) whose life gets turned upside down by a painter of the macabre (Crispin Glover).

If you’ve read Lovecraft’s original Pickman’s Model, you’ll know there are a lot of differences when it comes to this trailer. We don’t really know how the episode plans to change the story, but seeing that this is based on one of Lovecraft’s most popular stories, it’s probably best to change a few elements to keep everyone on their toes.

So far, the series has been kind of a mixed bag, but I am hoping Cabinet of Curiosities becomes an annual thing for Netflix.

Though del Toro may be embracing horror for this season, he is set to go for the family-friendly animated adventure with his upcoming Pinocchio movie also coming to Netflix this December.

Guillermo del Toro – the master of horror – presents a collection of unprecedented and genre-defining stories that will challenge our traditional notions of horror.

 Guillermo Del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities is an anthology of sinister stories, told by some of today’s most revered horror creators – including the directors of The Babadook, Splice, Mandy, and many more.
