The show follows forensic psychologist Laz (Sam Caflin), who returns to the home he grew up in following his father’s (Bill Nighy) suicide. But not long after arriving back at the place he spent years trying to escape, he starts to become haunted by unexplainable, deeply disturbing occurrences.

The incidents lead Sam to confront the ghosts of his past, specifically the unsolved murder of his sister 25 years ago, as well as the mysterious death of his father in the present. As Laz’s other sister Jenna "Alexandra Roach" begins to toy with the world of the supernatural, he uncovers long buried family secrets.

“Lazarus” may not be based on an existing novel, but ghosts notwithstanding, it sounds like classic Coben, with all the buried secrets and family trauma we’ve come to expect from the best-selling author — unsurprising, considering the co-writer is Daniel Brocklehurst, best known as the creator of "Brassic", but also the exec producer of a number of Coben adaptations.

With all episodes dropping at once, Coben’s latest sounds like just the thing for a Halloween binge, so read on for our guide on how to watch "Lazarus" online and from anywhere in the world.
