The third season of 'Vampires of the Central Strip' is already on the way, which means that viewers are once again in for sleepless nights, pale faces, and the signature sarcasm of the immortals from Smolensk. Fans have been waiting for the continuation for almost two years, and now the intrigue is close to resolution: the new episodes promise to be darker, funnier, and a bit more dangerous.
The secret of the charm of 'Vampires of the Central Strip' lies not only in the atmosphere and ironic dialogues but also in the cast. In the third season, new faces will join the old guard. Serious changes will occur in the characters' lives. Olga will give birth to an unusual child, Sergey Baranovsky will discover new abilities within himself, and Zhenya will return after resurrection, but he won't be the same right away. He is clumsy, lost, and just beginning to regain his strength.
