Dreamworks and Eli Roth Team Up for Kids Animated Horror Series "FRIGHT KREWE"

Who would have guessed Eli Roth, the director behind ‘HOSTEL’ and ‘THE GREEN INFERNO’ would be teaming up with Dreamworks (SHREK, PUSS IN BOOTS) to make a kid friendly horror series.? We sure as hell didn’t but that is indeed happening with “FRIGHT KREWE.”

The Wrap reports that the 2D animated series comes from Roth and author James Frey (A Million Little Pieces). While no release date has been announced yet, the 10-episode first season will debut on Hulu and Peacock.

In the series, ““An ancient prophecy and a Voodoo Queen put misfit teens in charge of saving New Orleans from the biggest demonic threat it’s faced in almost two centuries. But, honestly? Saving the world might be easier than becoming friends.”

We have no word on the voice cast for this series as of yet but we’re sure it’ll be stellar.

Roth, Frey, Joanna Lewis and Kristine Songco will executive produce the series with Shane Acker and Mitchell Smith serving as co-executive producers.
