There’s a lot of anticipation surrounding the upcoming Netflix show based on the works by Andrzej Sapkowski. While The Witcher TV show is set to premiere on December 20th, it’s already a hit.

For all the grumpy people out there we suggest holding their horses. The Witcher debuts on December 20th, so all the pikes and forks are a bit premature at the moment. And if you’re not happy with the end result you can always go back to the video game series. We have some awesome deals for these…
