In A Discovery of Witches, historian and witch by birth Diana Bishop (Teresa Palmer) has abstained from practicing magic. Instead, she focuses on her alchemy research. While deep in the archives at the University of Oxford’s library, though, she unknowingly ends up in possession of a powerful book about the origins of supernatural creatures … a book that could ruin the lives of vampires, witches, and demons if it falls into the wrong hands. To thwart any threats, she teams up with the enigmatic Matthew (Matthew Goode), a vampire and professor. But will their newfound love get in the way of everything they’re fighting against? 

If you’ve followed Diana and Matthew through the realms of A Discovery of Witches, here are more fantastical shows to keep you on the edge of your broom — er, seat.
