Showtime's Penny Dreadful is a literal monster mash, mixing together the stories of Frankenstein, Dracula, Dorian Gray, and The Wolfman to create a mesmerising Gothic horror series. While the show is full of monsters and frights, Penny Dreadful's greatest strength is in its ability to tell deeply human stories about a host of supernaturally inclined characters, with Eva Green's Vanessa Ives being a standout.
