The first trailer of “Ash vs. Evil Dead” has been released, giving fans a glimpse of what the main plot of the TV show is and why the protagonist, Ashley J. Williams, also called Ash, is back. The hero is seen using his chainsaw once again to take on evil creatures that come after him.

The first graphic tease of the TV series was released in April. The video only stated that the creators of the 1981 “The Evil Dead” movie have worked on a TV show for Starz. The video has over 87,000 views so far. The second video released in May showed a scene of blood dripping from a chainsaw and Ash [Bruce Campbell] saying “groovy.” The video has over 800,000 views so far.

The first full trailer of the TV series now has more than 2 million views. The video shows that it has been over 30 years since Ash awoke something evil in woods in the 1981 movie. The evil from the woods will be back to kill Ash and the hero has to fight the creatures it sends with the help of his new friends in “Ash vs. Evil Dead.”

Ash plans to read some of the passages from the book of the dead that was responsible for all the chaos after consulting an expert, in the hope that he may stop the evil. According to a report in RollingStone, Lucy Lawless plays a “mysterious figure” who blames Ash for the evil being back and seeking to kill all of them.

The premiere episode of “Ash vs. Evil Dead” will reportedly air on Halloween. The TV series is expected to be funny, with the protagonist telling one-liner jokes, along with scenes of the heroes fighting a whole range of evil creatures that range from wicked dolls to a possessed grandmother.
