South of Hell is a 2015 American supernatural horror drama television series starring Mena Suvari. [2] The series was ordered by WE tv with a straight eight episode pick up in 2014, but after a change of AMC Networks personnel and a shift back towards reality television programming, the network burned off seven of its eight episodes all on one day on November 27, 2015 (that year's Black Friday); the eighth was made available exclusively at the time through the iTunes Store. [2] [3] [4] Several feature directors, including Ti West, Rachel Talalay, Jennifer Lynch and Jeremiah S. Chechik, directed individual episodes, along with executive producer Eli Roth, who directed the pilot. [5] The series is currently available in full through digital retailers, along with several ad-supported video on demand providers.

Premise

In Charleston, South Carolina, Maria and David Abascal are demon hunters for hire. In Maria's body resides a demon called Abigail, who feeds off the evil that Maria exorcises from others. As Maria does her job of vanquishing evil, she must find a way to exorcise Abigail out of her body. But getting rid of Abigail is not an easy task, as the demon finds it immensely appealing to reside deep within a conflicted soul such as Maria's.
