'The Passage' echoes 'The Vampire Diaries' and 'Stranger Things' but seems unlike anything you've seen on TV so far

Fox's new series 'The Passage' promises a fare unlike any vampire series or sci-fi shows you have seen till date

'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' established the cult of avid vampire lovers, and over two decades down the line, the 'Twilight' franchise as well as 'The Vampire Diaries' only proved that the favorite-fang is really a "thing" for many.

Meanwhile, another genre, sci-fi, was gradually gaining popularity. From the 90s 'X-Files' to 2016's major Netflix hit 'Stranger Things,' the genre has not only come a long way but has managed to intrigue viewers so much so that a sci-fi series rarely flops.

Fast forward to 2019, the new year promises a refreshing start for fans of both genres, with Fox's new series 'The Passage' promises a fare unlike any vampire series or sci-fi shows you have seen till date. It will be the best of both worlds, and the essence of others in between, telling the gripping tale of apocalypse and survival.
