Ahead of the return of "Penny Dreadful" on May 3, Showtime has made the Season 2 premiere available online for free. Watch it below.

Created by three-time Academy Award nominee John Logan, the Gothic thriller returns to find Vanessa Ives (Eva Green) and Ethan Chandler (Josh Hartnett) forming a deeper bond as the group, including Sir Malcolm (Timothy Dalton), Dr. Frankenstein (Harry Treadaway), and Sembene (Danny Sapani), unite to banish the evil forces that threaten to destroy them. Meanwhile, Dorian Gray (Reeve Carney) and the Creature (Rory Kinnear) are all waging battles of their own.

The 10-episode second season also features Patti LuPone as a mysterious figure from Vanessa's past, Helen McCrory as Evelyn Poole (aka Madame Kali), the spiritualist who now poses a great threat to the group, and Simon Russell Beale as eccentric Egyptologist Ferdinand Lyle.

"Penny Dreadful" returns Sunday, May 3, at 10 p.m. ET/PT on Showtime.
