This is what “1899” is all about.

After time travel and apocalypses, the new series will (probably) only be limited to a period of time and will “ revolve around the mysterious circumstances surrounding the journey of an immigrant ship from Europe to New York ”, as the official description says. The passengers on board are all of different origins and nationalities, but” united by their hopes and dreams for a new century and their future abroad “. However, on the voyage in the middle of the sea, they discover a ship that has been lost for months. You don’t have to be an expert in horror to guess how THAT will go on! The description gives the first scary hints: “What they find onboard will turn their passage to the promised land into a nightmarish riddle that connects each passenger’s past through a web of secrets ”. Very promising! Even “Dark” was captivating with its blatant (and confused) network of characters who were related in one way or another to one of the two main characters. Let’s see how the creators in the series handle it!
