Acclaimed horror master Álex de la Iglesia (The Day of the Beast, Witching & Bitching, The Last Circus) turned religious horror upside down in HBO/HBO Max’s series “30 Coins” with weird twists on Vatican conspiracies and bizarre takes on demons. It also left a few dangling loose ends that left fans clamoring for more.
Now, it seems that our prayers have been answered; the filmmaker took to Twitter to tease the series’ return.

The tweet features de la Iglesia walking in the series’ central town square and just two words, “Coming back.” That’s all we needed to hear!
The eight-episode drama series followed Father Vergara (Eduard Fernández), an exorcist, boxer, and ex-convict who is exiled by the church as the priest of a remote town in Spain. As his past and old enemies come back to haunt him, strange things begin to happen. An unlikely task force forms as Mayor Paco (Miguel Ángel Silvestre) and local vet Elena (Megan Montaner) seek the truth, while reality is distorted by a cursed coin which is at the heart of a global conspiracy.
