‘What We Do in the Shadows’ Final Season Trailer: Vampires Set Out on Their Own Adventures
In the trailer for the upcoming sixth and final season of What We Do in the Shadows, Staten Island vampire roommates Nandor (Kayvan Novak), Laszlo (Matt Berry), Nadja (Natasia Demetriou) and Colin Robinson (Mark Proksch) are seen venturing out on their own journeys.
Even former familiar Guillermo (Harvey Guillén), after his brief stint as a vampire in season five, has left the vampires’ residence for a new home.

Nadja, meanwhile, is shown working at an office, where she tells viewers, “Every day I am learning the dark arts of corporate America … TGI, FML, NGL, LOL.”
Laszlo continues his scientific experiments as he sets out to achieve his goal of “bringing life to a lifeless vessel.”
When Colin Robinson says that what he’s doing is like Frankenstein, Laszlo insists he has no idea what Colin is talking about.
“What I’m doing is completely original,” he says.
The trailer also teases the arrival of former roommate and fellow vampire Jerry (Mike O’Brien), who had been taking a “super slumber,” but, after he wakes up and declares, “Happy New Year, 1996,” Nadja and Nandor admit they forgot to wake him up and accidentally let him sleep for 50 years.
The well-rested Jerry then demands to know what the vampires have been up to for the past five decades.
He asks, “What is our current dark purpose?”
FX teases that Jerry’s appearance makes the vampires realize how little they’ve done: “Not one goal accomplished, not one dream pursued, not one part of the New World conquered (except for their street and part of Ashley Street).”
However, this doesn’t stop Nandor from declaring, in the trailer, “Let the conquest of the New World commence.”
The rest of the trailer teases more mayhem, Nadja and Laszlo fighting, and Colin Robinson accidentally sleep-hypnotizing Nandor as Richard Nixon.
Other vampire exploits for season six, as teased by FX, include visiting New Hampshire, attending a human dinner party, celebrating the Baron and conjuring a demon.
The 11-episode sixth and final season, the back half of a two-season renewal, of What We Do in the Shadows premieres with three episodes on FX on Monday, Oct. 21, at 10 p.m. One episode will air each week after that on Mondays. Episodes will stream on Hulu the day after airing.
What We Do in the Shadows is executive produced by Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement, as well as showrunner Paul Simms, Sam Johnson and Garrett Basch.
