Maidenhead may come to be known for more than genteel teas in the English countryside if a new NBC series takes off.

Devised by Source Code‘s Ben Ripley and Fast and Furious’ James Wan for Davis Entertainment, Maidenhead has been bought by NBC with a significant penalty if it doesn’t proceed.

The series is described as “a medical procedural wrapped in a very realistic, frightening supernatural drama. When a scientist is called to a tiny Connecticut suburb to investigate an ailing teen girl, he discovers that her affliction presents itself as a demonic contagion slowly spreading through the town. His team peels back the secrets and lies buried within the fabric of the community while medically deconstructing the tropes of demon mythology.”
