Previously: Celebrated series creator and writer Hannah Rose May returns to craft a new demonic saga and is joined by renowned artist Kelsey Ramsay (Godzilla: HeistDark Spaces: Good Deeds) to torment London’s royal residence and reveal its shocking family curse.

"I’ve been truly humbled by the response to THE EXORCISM AT 1600 PENN,” said May. “Returning to this world with the team at IDW Dark has been an absolute thrill. THE EXORCISM AT BUCKINGHAM PALACE expands the universe with a brand-new setting, cast and mythology. It’s a fresh entry point for new readers, while rewarding the fans who’ve been with us since the beginning. I'm delighted to have Kelsey Ramsay on board for art and we can’t wait to welcome everyone into the next chilling chapter of THE EXORCISM AT universe."

THE EXORCISM AT BUCKINGHAM PALACE #2: "Theo Belmont is being dragged under — by the pressures of assuming the throne, an escalating addiction, and the all-consuming darkness of the curse that has haunted his family for generations.

As his grip on reality loosens, blackout periods now taking place at regular intervals, Theo can’t help but wonder if the political pressure is costing him his mind... just as it cost his mother hers. If he’s going to escape his inner demons, he’ll need to place his trust in a greater power. A power like the president of the United States of America."
