Horror streaming service Shudder has announced that it has renewed its acclaimed anthology series Creepshow for a second season.
“For me, Creepshow has been a true labor of love,” said executive producer Greg Nicotero (The Walking Dead). “To be able to pay tribute to George A. Romero’s visionary project and have the show so embraced by fans everywhere is humbling to this horror kid from Pittsburgh. I couldn’t be more pleased and look forward to continuing the series with more ghoulish delight.”
“Creepshow has met every expectation we had for Shudder’s first original scripted series and then some, with record numbers across the board,” said Shudder’s Craig Engler. “Greg Nicotero and his team delivered an amazing show that’s unlike anything else on TV and we’re thrilled and delighted to bring it back for another season.”
Shudder’s first hour-long series and based on the 1982 movie from director George A. Romero and writer Stephen King, Creepshow has been a success for the streamer, with over half of its members watching at least one episode, contributing to record growth for the platform.
