Julie Bowen is returning to the small screen.
The two-time Emmy Award Winning Modern Family alum has joined the cast of Peacock's coming-of-age thriller Hysteria.
According to the streaming service, Hysteria "explores American's dark history of mass hysteria through the shocking story of the teenage Satanic Panic."
Peacock dropped a logline for the project, and it reads as follows:
When a beloved varsity quarterback disappears during the "Satanic Panic" of the late 1980s, a struggling high school heavy metal band of outcasts realize they can capitalize on the town's sudden interest in the occult by building a reputation as a Satanic metal band, until a bizarre series of murders, kidnappings, and reported "supernatural activity" triggers a leather-studded witch hunt that leads directly back to them.
