Get ready for your short albeit busy visit to Harper’s Island this spring. By summer, your trip will be over. And what will you have learned? Well, you’ll hopefully learn who the killer is! Harper’s Island is a TV event on CBS that will last for 13 episodes (spooky number!) between April and July.

I’ll be watching because it sounds like an interesting concept – and I love this type of stuff! It seems like they’re going to take a really interesting horror movie and stretch it out into more than a miniseries, but less than an actual TV series (which is smart). I wish they had done that with Scream!

The episodes will begin on Thursday, April 9th at 10:00, and end on July 2nd. With every episode comes another death. By the finale, only one person will have survived., 

The series stars Katie Cassidy (Supernatural) as “Trish Wellington,” Elaine Cassidy (The Others) as “Abby Mills,” and Christopher Gorham (Ugly Betty) as “Henry Dunn.”

The premise is that a group of people have traveled to the island for a wedding. “Abby Mills, whose mother was killed on the island by a homicidal maniac’s rampage seven years ago, journeys home for the first time since the horrific event for the wedding of her best friend, Henry Dunn. Henry, the boy next door, is marrying the woman of his dreams, Trish Wellington, a beautiful and wealthy heiress. But as the wedding week begins, people start dying. Every episode, someone is killed. Wedding guests and island locals, every person is a suspect. No one is safe. No one can be trusted.”
