“Creepshow”, the Macabre Anthology series on Shudder, is officially in the grave.
A source close to the network confirms that the series will not continue after four seasons. Launched in 2019 by Greg Nicotero, the series lasted 23 episodes and two specials, wrapped in 2023 after a fourth season.
Although no official end of the series has been announced, the source indicates that the series was only planned for four seasons.
To soften the blow for fans, a Blu -ray box of the whole series – entitled “Creepshow Complete Series” – is expected to be released on November 11.
“Creepshow” was based on the anthology film of Stephen King and George A. Romero in 1982, which caused “Creepshow 2” of 1987, as well as “Creepshow 3.” In 2006 the third film had no involvement of the duo.
The series included original stories and adapted stories of authors like King, Joe Hill, Nicotero, Rob Schrab, Dana Gould, Heather Anne Campbell and many others. The directors understood Joe Lynch, Nicotero, John Harrison, David Bruckner and Roxanne Benjamin, among others.
Nicotero, the special effects guru, who was also an executive producer and director of “The Walking Dead”, often cited the original “Creepshow” as a favorite scary film.
“‘Creepshow’ is a project very close to my heart! It is one of those titles that embraces the true spirit of horror … thrills and chills celebrated in one of its most reduced art forms, comics has come to life! I am honored to continue the tradition in the ‘Spirit’ ‘in which it was created,” said Nicotero in a statement when the show was times.
Nicotero’s new project with Shudder, a reality competition program entitled “Guts & Glory”, is expected to make its debut on September 9.
