Season three of Bates Motel will see teenage Norman's fears about what really happened with Blaire Watson resurface as his mother begins to question events and confront realisations about her son.

Norma will also find herself turning to the boy's half-brother, Dylan (Max Thieriot), for help, which triggers intense jealousy in Norman.

Kenny Johnson, Olivia Cooke, Nicola Peltz and Nestor Carbonell resume their roles as Caleb, Emma, Bradley and Sheriff Romero, and newcomers Kevin Rahm (Mad Men, Desperate Housewives), Tracy Spiridakos (Revolution), Ryan Hurst (Sons of Anarchy) and Joshua Leonard (The Blair Witch Project) will also be arriving at White Pine Bay.
