Star Trek: SNW Season 4 Actor Teases Fantastic Horror Episode

Paul Wesley and Ethan Peck recently attended the 2026 Comic Con Experience (CCXP) in Mexico City to promote the upcoming season 4 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. During the event, Peck excitedly hinted at “a really fantastic horror episode” that fans can look forward to. He even mentioned a scene featuring Kirk screaming and closing doors from the teaser footage.

In the same conversation, Wesley shared his enthusiasm for the new season, hinting at the intensity of exploring Kirk’s past and the demons that haunt him. The teaser also revealed a mysterious and eerie moment with La’an Noonien Singh (played by Christina Chong) sitting in the dark and a zombie hand grabbing her shoulder.

As a longtime Trekkie and horror fan, I can’t wait to see how this episode unfolds. Personally, I have a soft spot for the classic Star Trek episode “Wolf in the Fold” from The Original Series, where the crew faces off against Jack the Ripper.

While we don’t know if the upcoming horror episode will match up to the classics, I am eagerly anticipating its release in July on Paramount+. What are your thoughts on this news?

Live long and prosper, Trekkies!
