BBC Three - Candyman

A gentrified neighbourhood is terrorised by a murderous figure of urban legend.

An artist begins to explore the macabre history of the urban legend known as Candyman, and unwittingly unleashes a terrifying wave of violence that puts him on a collision course with destiny.

For decades, residents of Chicago’s Cabrini-Green have heard stories of a supernatural killer known only as Candyman, allegedly the resurrected soul of a murdered slave wanting to exact vengeance on his killers.

In the present day, visual artist Anthony McCoy (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) and his girlfriend (Teyonah Parris) have moved into a luxury loft condo in a now-gentrified Cabrini-Green. A chance encounter with a local old-timer (Colman Domingo) exposes Anthony to the true story behind Candyman, and unleashes a wave of violence that puts him on a collision course with destiny.

A multi-platform service for 16-34s, featuring comedy, entertainment and factual content.

The BBC’s multi-platform service for 16 to 34s, innovating with breakthrough comedy, stand-out entertainment, brave documentary and intellectual factual content.
