Cable network AMC, who is perhaps best known for making horror TV shows monster hits, has optioned to put into development a series that is based off a novel written by Joe Hill, who fans may know better as Stephen King's son.

According to Deadline, AMC will be transforming the novel "NOS4A2" into a series on their network, which already hosts "The Walking Dead."

For those who cannot tell by reading the novel name out loud, it is a license plate number that sounds like the word "Nosferatu" when spoken.

The story is a quite a unique take on supernatural terror, coming from a family that is known for putting nightmares in people's minds through their writing.

The book focuses on a woman named Vic (short for Victoria) who has a unique gift. She has the ability to find things by simply riding her bike across a special bridge. She has been using the gift and the bridge since she was very young and as time goes by, decades to be exact, the gift is having a terrible effect on her mind and it seems to be breaking her down, much in the same way it did to Johnny Smith in Stephen King's "The Dead Zone."

Realizing that she needs help with her special gift before it destroys her, she goes on a journey to find someone that has the knowledge necessary to help her. But what she got was a psychopath name Charlie Jinx.

Jinx has been wandering the highways at that point for years in his 1938 Rolls Royce Wraith. He is also the one with the titular license plate. He kidnaps children and steals their youthful souls in order to keep himself young.

Eventually, Manx gets Vic's son and the series takes on a series of terrifying twists as the two battle it out in place after place.

There has been no word yet as to when the show will be produced or when it will premiere on AMC.
