In an early announcement to retailers, HBO is planning to bring 'True Blood: The Complete Fourth Season' to Blu-ray on May 29.
Another supernatural force has come to light in Bon Temps – witchcraft – and life for its residents will never be the same. Sookie (Anna Paquin, 'The Piano') finds herself entangled in a love triangle – torn between a vengeful Bill (Stephen Moyer, 'The Double'), the new Vampire King of Mississippi, and Eric (Alexander Skarsgård, 'Straw Dogs'), who's not the former Viking he once was. Led by a charismatic witch named Marnie (Fiona Shaw, 'The Tree of Life'), who threatens to let no one living or dead stand in her way, a powerful coven tempts Lafayette (Nelsan Ellis, 'The Help'), Tara (Rutina Wesley, 'True Blood: The Complete First Season'), and Jesus (Kevin Alejandro, 'Red State') with otherworldly powers. Jessica (Deborah Ann Woll, 'True Blood: The Complete Second Season') tries to adjust to a domestic life, while Jason (Ryan Kwanten, 'Red Hill') finds himself alone in werepanther territory. Arlene (Carrie Preston, 'Doubt') and Terry (Todd Lowe, 'True Blood: The Complete Third Season') come to terms with their highly unusual baby, and Alcide (Joe Manganiello, 'Spider-Man') finds himself caught in the clutches of an old flame.
