Be forewarned, upon watching the official trailer, you will be subjected to a shack full of crabs, a tyrannical vice principal, murder, kidnapping, high fashion, unnecessary surgery, ravenous lions, and a great deal of herring.
But sadly, the trailer is only the beginning. Like some dreaded disease or infestation, A Series of Unfortunate Events will soon reappear with the global launch of season two, March 30 on Netflix. Our sincerest apologies.
In addition to regretfully releasing the official trailer, seen below, the streaming giant has also debuted the abysmal key art for the season.
Based on the internationally best selling series of books by Lemony Snicket (aka Daniel Handler), season two of the Netflix original series plunges further into the epic world of this darkly comedic mystery.

Malina Weissman, Louis Hynes, Presley Smith, Patrick Warburton and K. Todd Freeman (among others) return for season two.
