The 'Skyfall' team of director Sam Mendes and writer John Logan are teaming up to make a new TV series set in 1800s London where famous characters such as Van Helsing and Doctor Frankenstein will hunt vampires.

Logan will head up writing duties whilst Mendes will produce the as-yet untitled project.
