- Debby Ayorinde returns as LAPD Detective Dawn Reeve, with new cast additions like Pam Grier.
- Season 2 story moves on from the Emorys to a new horror tale in the 1990s, focusing on a gruesome murder investigation.
Them season 2 is officially on the way, and here's everything currently known about the new anthology series. Them premiered its first season, Covenant, on Amazon Prime in April 2021, and the story follows the Emory family as they move from North Carolina to an all-white neighborhood in Compton, CA, in the 1950s. Over the next ten days, the Emorys are plagued by horrors from their racist white neighbors and the apparitions in their new home.
Series creator Little Marvin drew upon the history of the post-war 1950s and the Great Migration in the United States to set the stage for the Emorys’ house of horrors. Them’s incredible cast, including Deborah Ayorinde, Ashley Thomas, Alison Pill, and Shahadi Wright Joseph, bring the characters of the Compton neighborhood to life. While the story of the Emorys wrapped up at the end of season 1, there’s more in store for Them season 2, even though the story itself won't follow the same path. Here are the details so far.

Them Season 2 Story Details
What Happens In Season 2?
Them season 1 ended the saga of the Emorys, so season two will move on to a new story with new characters. Jumping ahead several decades, Them season 2 will take place in the 1990s and follows LAPD Homicide Detective Dawn Reeve (Ayorinde) as she investigates the gruesome murder of a foster parent. Few details have been revealed, and that is likely to keep the suspense up for the new season. It is unclear if the horror elements from season 1 will connect with season 2's more grounded premise.
