As for what to expect in "Bates Motel" Season 4, fans should start bracing themselves for something big that is about to come in the new installment of the show.
In his interview with the people from ComicBook.com, cast member Nestor Carbonell said that while there's nothing much that he can tease of, one thing's for sure though - the new season will be a big one.
"There's a lot of payoff. There's been a lot of set up until now, so there will be payoff," the actor said.
Carbonell, who will also be directing one of the new episodes in the series, particularly points out to the further decay of Norma's (Vera Farmiga) mental state.
"We saw Norma's descent already clearly happening especially through the second half of last season so we'll see more of that to come, no doubt about it," he revealed.
"Bates Motel" Season 4 returns to the small screen in spring 2016.
Stay tuned for more updates.
