Shining Vale Storyline

A dysfunctional family moves from the city to a small town after Patricia “Pat” Phelps, a former “wild child” who became famous through writing raunchy female empowerment novels, is caught cheating on her husband. The house the family moves into is a place where, in the past, terrible atrocities have taken place. Nobody seems to suspect anything odd except for Pat who is convinced she is either depressed or possessed. Pat has been sober for 16 years, but begins to feel very unfulfilled in life – she still has not written her second novel, she cannot remember the last time she had sex with her husband, and her teenage kids have grown up to the point they do not want their mother in their lives. Soon, the demons haunting the family’s new home begin to appear much more real.

By August 2019, the project received an official pilot order, at which point it transitioned to Starz, with Lionsgate Television coming on board as a co-production studio. In February 2020, Dearbhla Walsh was appointed to direct and executive produce the pilot episode.
