Last month, we reported that NBC has picked up a supernatural series pilot titled Midnight Texas. Now, Deadline reports that Niels Arden Oplev has been tapped to direct and executive produce the series.

Oplev has previously worked on Mr. Robot and the pilot for CBS’ Under the Dome.

Based on the books by Charlaine Harris, Midnight Texas takes place in a mysterious small town “where your neighbor could be a vampire, a witch, a werewolf, or even an angel. Mystery, horror and romance combine to both enthrall and frighten any outsiders who decide to venture into this unusual place.”

What do you think? Have you read the Midnight Texas books? Will you watch the series?
