If you were at San Diego Comic-Con 2011 you may have been treated to a special preview of the show Bedlam coming out on BBC America. If not, no fear, we have information about the show right here.

The show has an interesting premise, and looks like it could definitely do well. Below you will find the show description along with a trailer for those who may want to get interested in the show.

Bedlam is a ghostly series set around Bedlam Heights — a hip, newly renovated apartment building. Those who live there think they have the best address in the world, but little do they know their new home has a harrowing past.

The conversion of Bedlam Heights from a former insane asylum has awakened the ghosts of its dark and violent past. These spirits wish to reclaim what’s theirs and seek revenge on those who have wronged them.

Kate (Charlotte Salt, The Tudors), a direct descendant of the people who ran the former asylum for generations, lives and works in Bedlam Heights. Her father, Warren (Hugo Speer, Skins), still owns the old family property, and Kate is helping him fill the remaining vacant apartments. She shares her apartment with roommates Ryan (Will Young, Skins) and Molly (Ashley Madekwe, Secret Diary of a Call Girl), but only with the unexpected arrival of Kate’s adopted cousin, Jed (Theo James, Downton Abbey) — a troubled man with a history of mental illness who sees ghosts and visions of the past — are they able to uncover the terrifying secrets of Bedlam Heights. The hauntings that follow prove that sometimes when you scratch away the surface, things aren’t always what they seem.

Written and created by Neil Jones (Blue Murder), David Allison (Boy Meets Girl) and Chris Parker (EastEnders).

Bedlam Premieres Saturday, October 8th at 9pm/8c.
